Answer:

4.9kg of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Dry basis is the percentage ratio of moisture amount to amount of dry product which is 175%

Ratio of moisture amount to dry product = 175 : 100

Mass of food product = 10kg

Amount of moisture in food product = 175/175+100 × 10kg = 175/275 × 10kg = 6.4kg

Wet basis is the percentage ratio of the moisture amount to the total weight of material which is 15%

Ratio of moisture amount to total weight of material is 15 : 100

Amount of moisture in food product = 15/100 × 10kg = 1.5kg

Amount of water contained in the final product = 1.5kg

Amount of other components in the food product = 10kg - 6.4kg = 3.6kg

Total amount = 1.5kg + 3.6kg = 5.1kg

% of water = 1.5kg/5.1kg × 100 = 29%

Wheel world sold 875 cars last year if the sales this year are 120% of sales last year how many cars will they sell this year
inn [45]

okay so first you wanna turn that 120% into a decimal and the decimal form of that would be 1.2 or 1.20

Secondly you want to multiply 875 by the 1.2

875*1.2 = 1050

So if they sell 120% of last years sales they will sell 1050 cars this year.

Hope this helped :)
