A is left with 5, B now has 15, 2/15 is the salt solution in B.

Now, as you put B into A, you are going to have an equation of,

((2/15)y)/(y+5)=.05

1.25y=3.75
y=3 :)

Answer is D. X^2 and Y^2 will always be positive regardless of the signs, so X/Y>0 at all times.

Vamuri, can you present and explain a formula you used for how you were able to derive how the arrangements were calculated? For example, GGGG-arranged in 1 way, i understand the logic, but is there a formula?

Thanks
