    you will 180 pints of the 100% juice and 540 pints of the 40% juice

    Step-by-step explanation:

    in order to get a 55% mixture you must combine 1 100% and 3 40%

    100 + 120 = 220 then divide by 4 and you get 55% juice

    now you must use 180 100% juice and 540 40 % juice to make 180 pints

    you need this because the ratio is 3 40% to every 1 100%
