Answer:

35.5 u

Explanation:

Whenever masses and percentage of isotopes of an element are given, there is a formula to be used.

Mass of the isotope x Percentage/100+Mass of another isotope x Percentage/100

÷ (whole divided by)

Percentage/100+Percentage of another/100

So,

Atomic mass= 35x75/100+ 37x 25/100 ÷ 75/100+25/100

Atomic mass= 35.5 u
