Jam produced:
Explanation:
Step by step:
1) Kg of mixture from the mixer
It says that crushed fruit is added to the mixer with the sugar and pectin.
The fruit added is 1000 kg
The sugar added is 1.22 kg sugar/1 kg crushed fruit:
The pectin added is 0.0025 kg pectin/1 kg crushed fruit:

Initial: 1000 kg of fruit with 14 wt% of solids
<em>This amount of solids is constant </em>
Final: The mass of solids is the same but now it represents the 67 wt%
and
3) Jam produced
