    X=quarts of water

    Y=quarts of concentrate

    Y=20 quarts of concentrate, X=80 quarts of water

    Step-by-step explanation:

    X=quarts of water

    Y=quarts of concentrate

    So X=4Y and water and concentrate make the lemonade so X+Y = quarts of lemonade

    Then we have X=4Y and X+Y=100. Hence

    X+Y=100 → 4Y+Y=100 → 5Y=100→ Y=20 quarts of concentrate → X=80 quarts of water
