John wants to figure out how many fluid ounces of purple cow that is 10% grape juice should be mixed with 10 fluid ounces of purple cow that is 35% grape juice to get a drink that is 20% grape juice. To figure this out, John may solve the equation 10% g + 35% 10 = 20% (g + 10), where g is the number of fluid ounces of purple cow that is 10% grape juice.
