    Let x be the cups of trail mix that is 10% candy pieces

    Y be the cups of trail mix that is 25% candy pieces.

    Since the total is 18 cups

    X + y = 18

    And the mix is 20% candy

    0.10x + 0.25y = 18 (0.20)

    Solving the equations simultaneously

    X = 6 cups

    Y = 12 cups
