Answer:
by fractional crystallization
Explanation:
in a mixture of common salt and potassium nitrate, both are soluble in water but the solubility of potassium nitrate is higher than common salt
when the hot solution containing the mixture is cooled, potassium nitrate crystallizes out first leaving behind sodium chloride. The solution left behind is boiled again and cooled to separate more potassium nitrate. the process is repeated for complete separation
