Answer:

This must be a combination of these two isotopes. So the % of the other isotope must be 48.16%.

To work with these percentages in an equation I'll use them as decimals.

So now I can start putting them into an equation:

107.87

=

(

106.905

0.5184

)

+

(

x

0.4816

)

Because both of the isotope masses, multiplied by their percentage, would give us the overall average mass.

107.87

=

55.419552

(

x

0.4816

)

Worked out the brackets that we can work out, and then rearrange to give:

107.87

55.419552

=

(

x

0.4816

)

Again rearrange:

52.450448

=

(

x

0.4816

)

And final rearranging:

x = 52.450448

-----------------

0.4816

x = 108.909
