Let the percentage of K-39 be x
then the percentage of K-40 is 100-(x+0.01)
We know that the net weight should be 39.5. Therefore we can say
(39*x+40*(100-(x+0.01))+38*0.01)/100=39.5
(since we are taking it in percent)
39*x+40*(100-(x+0.01))+38*0.01=3950
39x+4000-40x-0.4+0.38=3950
2x=49.98
x=24.99
=25 (approx)
Therefore K-39 is 25% in nature and K-40 is 75% in nature.
Hope this helps.
gold is usually found in pure form because it is not reacting with other chemicals naturally.
