Answer 2

Answer:

The weight one can dry to get 140 grams is 700 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Fresh grapes looses 80 percent of it weight while drying . To get 140 grams of dried grape we need to know the weight of the fresh grape.

Let the fresh grape weight = y grams

80% of the fresh grape weight will be =  80/100 × y grams

The weight of fresh grape you should dry to get 140 grams = Fresh grape weight - 80% of the fresh grape weight

140 = y - 80/100 × y

140 = y - 0.8 y

140 = 0.2y

divide both sides by 0.2

y = 140/0.2

y = 700 grams
