    Bored in math class, figured out mixture problems.

    Mixture problem example: You need parts of a 30% chlorine and 55% chlorine mixture to make 100 gallons of a 40% chlorine. mixture. To figure out what the ratio of 30 to 55 is: 55% - 40% = 15 parts needed of 35% mixture, 40% - 30% = 10 parts of 50% mixture. 15 parts of 30% reduces to 3...
