If you have 10 grams of water and you add 5 grams to it how much salt water do you have?
To determine the amount of saltwater you have, we first need to know the ratio of salt to water. Let's assume that the ratio is 1:10, meaning for every gram of salt, you have 10 grams of water.
Given that you initially have 10 grams of water, if you add 5 grams of salt to it, you would have a total of 5 grams of salt and 10 grams of water. Since the ratio is 1:10, you would need 1/10th of 5 grams of salt for every gram of water.
Therefore, 10 grams of water would require 1/10th of 5 grams of salt, which is 0.5 grams.
Adding this to the initial 5 grams of salt, the total amount of saltwater you have would be 5 grams of salt and 10 grams of water.
