What is the % of sugar is in a syrup made of 10kg of water and 5kg of sugar
A syrup made of 10kg of water and 5kg of sugar would have a total weight of 10kg + 5kg = 15kg.
To find the percentage of sugar in the syrup, we need to calculate the weight of the sugar as a percentage of the total weight of the syrup.
Weight of sugar = 5kg
Total weight of the syrup = 15kg
Percentage of sugar in the syrup = (Weight of sugar / Total weight of syrup) * 100
= (5kg / 15kg) * 100
= 0.3333 * 100
= 33.33%
Therefore, the syrup made of 10kg of water and 5kg of sugar would have 33.33% sugar.
