How many grams of a 21.2 % sugar solution contain 26.5 g of sugar?

Answer 1

Assuming the 21.2% sugar is % by mass, we can perform the following calculations:

21.2% x = 26.5 g

0.212x = 26.5 g

x = 125 g solution

Check your answer:

21.2% means 21.2 g sugar per 100 g of solution

125 g solution x 21.2 g sugar / 100 g solution = 26.5 g sugar (CHECK)
