Full solution stays hidden until you ask for it.
1. Identify each variable quantity.
2. Multiply each variable by its contribution if needed.
3. Set the sum equal to the total constraint.
Use the worked steps, then substitute the final answer back into the original relationship to confirm it satisfies the prompt.
