Why all the math... Just drink it.

Okay, okay, okay... Been a while so I'll probably get it wrong... but I'll give it a 'shot'.

30/1 X 4 = 120/4
40/1 X 3 = 120/3
_____________
Total 120/7 or 17.14% (per ounce) 35 Proof

Am I close??? I'll thinkabout it more... That doesnt look right...lol

The drink will be 35 proof or 17.5% alcohol. Hey, how about awarding me a best man or buy me a drink?
