Answer:

500 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the total number of grams of the sample is x. We know that 30% of x is salt and we also know this quantity is 150 grams. So, we can write this as:

30% * x = 150

Remember that % is simply "out of 100", so 30% = 30/100 = 0.30. Then:

0.30 * x = 150

Divide both sides by 0.30:

x = 500 grams

Hope this helps!

How do you solve a linear equation
Olenka [21]
It is hard to explain without a picture. You have the line graph and depending on what your numbers are, you place them where the teacher, (or paper) says too. You would then move two to the right, and one up. You would keep repeating that pattern until you got to the top of the graph. After that you would draw a strait line through it. If you are dealing with negative numbers, then depending on which one is negative, you would move two to the LEFT from the starting point and go one up. You repeat that pattern as well, then once you reach the top of the page you draw a line through it.
I hope this helped!
