<p>if anyone has a solution to this feel free to post it:</p>

<p>so I narrowed it down to A and C which both gave me my answer after I assigned the variables real values and tried plugging them in. I ended up with C which is the right answer, but only because that was the one that directly related total grams to grams of jam. It was sort of a guess, and if anyone has a better solution, that is great.</p>

<p>The wording in the problem is really dumb. I spent quite a while trying to pinpoint jams, strawberries, pints, etc.</p>

<p>Anyway, the Q asked for pints of jam, so the pie part is almost irrelavent. </p>

<p>since 60% of S is used to make pints of jam(40% of S was used for strawberry),</p>

<p>0.6S = j*y, where units of j and y are grams/pint, pints, respectively.</p>

<p>0.6S/J = y, the number of pints.</p>

<p>or 3S/5J</p>
