+614 a 9-gram sample of a mixture A contains 5 grams of Pepper, 2 grams of Ginger and 2 grams of Turmeric. Another mixture B has 40% ginger, 40% turmeric and 20% pepper. If the two mixtures are mixed, and the final mixture has an equal amount of each of these 3 components, how many grams of B was mixed with 8=9 grams of A?
how i approached this problem:
9g A: p:5g G:2g t: 2g
xg B p:0.20x g:0.4x t:0.4x
9g+xg= 5+0.20x+2+0.4x+2+0.4x
