A) 14	B) 20	C) 32	D) 44	E) 48
lets say x ounces of P is mixed with Q.   =&gt; 64-x ounces of Q is present in the mixture (as the total = 64 ounces)   given total almond weight = 14 ounces   (20x/100)+(25/100)(64-x) = 14   =&gt; x = 40   =&gt; 64-40 = 14 ounces of Q is present in the mixture.   14nswer is 14.
