The alloy of copper will be 600 ounces.

What is an expression?

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Let us represent

Number of ounce of 30% copper = x

Hence, our Equation will be given below:-

x × 30% + 200 × 70% = (x + 200) × 40%

0.3x + 140 = (x + 200)0.4

0.3x + 140 = 0.4x + 80

Collect like terms

0.4x - 0.3x = 140 - 80

0.1x = 60

x = 60/0.1

x = 600 ounces

Therefore the alloy of copper will be 600 ounces.
