plz answer i will mark as brainliest if it is correct. i want with full steps and explaination ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Zinc = 200g

Copper = 300g

Step-by-step explanation:

Total mass = 500g

Percent of copper  = 60%

Therefore copper present in it = total mass x 60%

500 x 60/100 = 300g

Now, mass of zinc = totall mass - mass of copper = 500-300

= 200g

Answer 2

Answer:

Zinc = 200g

Copper = 300g

Step-by-step explanation:

Total mass = 500g

Percent of copper  = 60%

Therefore copper present in it = total mass x 60%

500 x 60/100 = 300g  

Now, mass of zinc = total mass - mass of copper = 500-300

                                                                                  = 200g
