Can we solve this ratios question from the Practice Q's using the "Trick"

Hey everyone,

Just came across this question from Greg’s Quant Problems set with the filter turned on for Ratios and Mixtures.

While I understand the solution Greg used in the video, I’m wondering if there’s a way to solve this using the “trick” for mixtures he explained in the concept series (i.e., finding the distance between mixture A to required mixture %, and mixture B to required mixture %)?

Hi Rohan, I was able to arrive at the answer using the “trick”. It is simpler that way!

Hi Medha,
Could you please show me your method or working?

Hi Rehan, attaching a screenshot here. x is the additional amount of fertilizer B.
