24 oz of juice P and 25 oz of juice V are mixed to make smothies X and Y . The ratio of p to V in smothie X is 4 is to 1 and that in Y is 1is to 5.How many ounces of juice P are contained in the smothie X?
Choices
A) 5 B) 10 C) 15 D) 20 E) 25
Let us now solve for x:   (4/5)X + (1/6)(49-X) = 24   24x + 5(49-x) = (24)(30)   24x + 245-5x = (24)(30)   19x = 720 -245   19x = 475   x=25   ANSW25R:25
