Percentage of copper is 48%Weight of alloy is 4.2kg Weight of copper is given by 48 × 4.12=

100

= 2.016kg

Percentage of zinc is 24%

Percentage of zinc is 24%Weight of alloy is 4.2kg

Percentage of zinc is 24%Weight of alloy is 4.2kg Weight of copper is given by 24 × 4.2=

100

=1.008

Percentage of copper is 100−48−24%=28%

Percentage of copper is 100−48−24%=28%Weight of alloy is 4.2kg

Percentage of copper is 100−48−24%=28%Weight of alloy is 4.2kg Weight of copper is given by 28 × 4.2=
