Given :
An alloy is a mixture of metals. Suppose that a certain alloy is made by mixing 50 g of an alloy containing 12% copper with 78 g of an alloy containing 92% copper.
To Find :
How many grams of copper are in the resulting mixture what percentage of the resulting mixture is copper.
Solution :
Mass of copper in 50 gm alloy = .
Mass of copper in 78 gm alloy = .
Total mass of copper, ( 6 + 76.44 ) gm = 82.44 gram.
Percentage of copper in resulting mixture :
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
<u>Multiply</u>
60%×1200=720
Note: When finding the percent of a number always multiply the percent times the number.
