Question

An alloy contains 36 % of bronze. What quantity of alloy is required to get 340 g of bronze?

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the total amount of alloy from which 340 g of bronze is required be X.

There is 36% of bronze in the alloy.

Therefore,36% of X =340

or,36X/100=340

or, X =340×100/36

or,X =944.444.....

or,X =944(approx.)

Ans: Amount of alloy from which 340 g of bronze is required is 944 g.
