Let there be x litter of 3030 percent juice and (2020-x) litter of 1010 percent juice.

30.30x+10.10 (2020-x) = 19.19 (x+2020-x)

30.30x+10.10*2020-10.10x=19.19*2020

20.20x=19.19*2020-10.10*2020

20.20x=9.09*2020

x=909

2020-x=2020-909=1111

909 litters of 3030 percent juice and 1111 litters of 1010 percent juice should be mixed.
