Question

solution that contains 20% sugar by weight is made sweeter by doubling the amount of sugar. The present of sugar, by weight in the new Solution is​

Answer 1

Weight of sugar in new solution = 40 gm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a solution of 100 gm contains 20% of sugar in weight.

20% of 100 gm = $\frac{20}{100}\times 100$

                            = 20 gm

Now,if the amount of sugar is doubled in the new solution

Weight of sugar in new solution =$2\times 20 gm$

                                                      = 40 gm.
