Answer #1 is "there is 2.5 grams of solute in every 100 g of solution."
We calculate for 2.5% by mass solution by dividing the mass of the solute by the mass of the solution and then multiply by 100.
Answer #2 is "that mass ratio would be 2.5/100 or 2.5 grams of solute/100 grams of solution."
We weigh out 2.5 grams of solute and then add 97.5 grams of solvent to make a total of 100 gram solution, that is,
mass of solute / mass of solution = 2.5g solute / (2.5g solute + 97.5g solvent)
= 2.5g solute / 100g solution
Answer#3 is "a solution mass of 1 kg is 10 times greater than 100 g, thus one kilogram (1 kg) of a 2.5% ki solution would contain 25 grams of ki."
We multiply 10 to each mass so that 100 grams becomes 1000grams since 1000 grams is equal to 1 kg:
mass of solute / mass of solution = 2.5g*10/[(2.5g*10) + (97.5g*10)]
= 25g solute/(25g solute + 975g solvent)
= 25g solute/1000g solution
= 25g solute/1kg solution
464 g radioisotope was present when the sample was put in storage

Given
Sample waste of Co-60 = 14.5 g
26.5 years in storage
Required
Initial sample
Solution
General formulas used in decay:

t = duration of decay
t 1/2 = half-life
N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms
Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time
Half-life of Co-60 = 5.3 years
