If 20 quarts of 15% garlic is mixed with 45 quarts 80% garlic, what percent garlic is the new mixture?

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

If 20 quarts of 15% garlic is mixed with 45 quarts 80% garlic, what percent garlic is the new mixture?

Let us represent:

15% garlic = x

80% garlic = y

Total quarts of the new mixture =

20 + 45 = 65 quarts

Hence:

15% × 20 + 80% × 45 quarts = 65quarts(x%)

3 + 36 = 65 × x%

39 = 65 × x%

x % = 39/65

x% = 0.6

Converting to decimal

= 0.6 × 100

= 60%

The Percent of the new garlic mixture = 60%
