Question

An alloy contain 60% of metal A , 30% of metal B ,and 10%of metal C. calculate the amount of metal in 5kg of the alloy​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to convert 5 kg into gram so it would be easier to find.

So,it would be 5000g.

Amount of metal A = 5000 × 60/100

= 500 × 6

= 3000g. (3 kg)

Amount of metal B = 5000 × 30/100

= 500 × 3

= 1500g. (1.5kg)

Amount of metal C = 5000 × 10/100

= 500 × 1

= 500g. (0.5kg)

So,Amount of metal A = 3 kg

Amount of metal B = 1.5 kg

Amount of metal C = 0.5 kg.
