Question

How much water do you add…To make 25% sugar syrup using 15g sugar?

Answer 1

25% sugar syrup means it has 25% sugar and 75% water

Let the total weight of solution is 'x'

amount of sugar = 15g = 25% of x = x/4

x/4 = 15

x = 60

so, amount of water required is = 75 % of x = 3/4 x

putting x  = 60

amount of water required = 45 g

Answer 2

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of percentage to calculate the amount of sugar needed, so we have to:

$Sugar= 45 g$

So organizing the information given in the statement we have that:

• 25% sugar syrup means it has 25% sugar and 75% water

• Amount of sugar = 15g = 25%

In this way, we can calculate the missing value for this percentage as:

$x = x/4\\x/4 = 15\\x = 60\\x = 3/4 x\\x = 60\\x = 45 g$
