Question

A cup of coffee has 71 mL of coffee and 127 mL of water. What is the percent volume of the coffee solution?

Answer 1

Answer:

35.9%

Explanation:

The percent volume of the coffee solution can be calculated as follows:

% volume of coffee solution = volume of coffee/total volume of coffee solution × 100

According to this question, a cup of coffee has 71 mL of coffee and 127 mL of water. This means that, the total volume of coffee solution is;

71mL + 127mL = 198mL

% volume = 71/198 × 100

= 0.359 × 100

Percent volume of coffee solution = 35.9%
