Given:
The number of kilograms of water in a person's body varies directly with the person's mass.
A person with a mass of 90 kg contains 60kg of water.
To find:
How many kilograms of water will be there in a person with a mass of 50 kg.
Solution:
As it is given that the number of kilograms of water in a person's body varies directly with the person's mass.
kilograms of water ∝ mass.
60 kg : 90 kg
x kg : 50 kg
This establishes a proportionality between the two ratios
60 kg : 90 kg :: x kg : 50 kg
60 : 90 :: x : 50
We will put this proportionality into an equation for the ease of solving the question.
60/ 90= x / 50
We will move all the numeric values to one side
60 × 50 / 90 = x
3000/ 90 = x
30 / 9 = x
100/ 3 = x
x = 100/3
x = 33.3
Therefore, 33.3 kilograms of water will be there in a person with a mass of 50 kg.
