Fresh Mango contains 70% water by weight whereas dry mango contains 10% water by weight. What is the weight of dry mango that can be obtained from 20 kg of Fresh Mango?

NetRodent · 05-28-2003, 05:42 PM

Do you seriously need help with this?

Damian_Maxcash · 05-28-2003, 05:42 PM

7.4kg I think

nobull · 05-28-2003, 05:42 PM

1 lbs 8 oz?

nobull · 05-28-2003, 05:44 PM

ok...im not going to edit that because then i would feel like a bigger retard...

so 1.5kg

05-28-2003, 05:46 PM

140kg? (if your asking to find the same amount of water)
if not
20kg, because 1 dry mango weighs as much as 1 fresh mango

European Lee · 05-28-2003, 05:48 PM

Ive re-worded it so that some of you retards might be able to work it out a little easier...

Fresh Pussy contains 70% water by weight whereas dry pussy contains 10% water by weight. What is the weight of dry pussy that can be obtained from 20 kg of Fresh Pussy?

Changing my answer to 8kg

american pervert · 05-28-2003, 05:58 PM

NetRodent · 05-28-2003, 05:59 PM

Ok lets break this problem down, shall we?

We know that a fresh mango contains 70% water by weight. Therefore 20 kg of fresh mangos contain 14 kg of water and 6 kg
of mango "solids".

We also know that dried mangoes contain 10% water by weight. If we have 6kg of mango "solids" that means that in a dried mango there are .6kg of water.

Thus the total weight of the dried mangos is 6.6kg.

You say that it is 6kg of mango solids - so NO water

70% of 20kg's is 14kg, so when you dry it and it is 10% water you still use 20kgs as the ammount - so 10% of 20kg is 2kg plus your 6kgs of "solids" and you have 8kg of dry mango

Phoenix · 05-28-2003, 06:13 PM

yeah i like 8 now as well

michaelw · 05-28-2003, 06:13 PM

20 * .3 = 6kg mango * 1.1(water) = 6.6kg

No. The original statement said dried mango's contain 10% water by weight. Not that dried mangos contain 10% of the their original weight.

I think perhaps this thread offers an insite into the "shaving" issue. Perhaps there really is no such thing as shaving, but rather 95% of the people in this industry suck at math.

Damian_Maxcash · 05-28-2003, 06:22 PM

Changing my answer again - 6.6kg

yeah, 6.6kg seems fine

but the question is not well formulated

Damian_Maxcash · 05-28-2003, 06:28 PM

Actually cant be 6.6

10% water = .66kg

6.6 - .66 = 5.94

We know that the "solids" must be 6kgs, so it cant be 6.6

I think I need to lay down now........ who asked this anyway!!

Phoenix · 05-28-2003, 06:29 PM

ah well fuck it..i never wrote anyting down..just guessed quickly

i should be all over this...i did get a math degree

damn..i guess i need to be doing more then right click copy and paste to keep it up

michaelw · 05-28-2003, 07:52 PM

20 * .3 = 6kg mango

total - 0.1(total) = 6kg

total = 6 2/3 Kg

thats how its done kiddies
(check: 6 2/3 * 0.1 = 2/3)

SomeCreep · 05-28-2003, 09:35 PM

neewwman · 05-28-2003, 09:53 PM

Definitely 6.66

If 20 kg of mango is 70% water, then you have 6 kg that is "not water."

But when you dry the mango you can't get down to just 6 kg; we know there will be some water left and the resulting substance will be 10% water by weight.

The rest is algebra:

X = 6 + .10X

.9X = 6

X = 6/.9

X = 6.66

This is the CORRECT answer. actually close to the correct answer...

this is absolutely correct

Definitely 6.66

Kapitan Ivanov · 05-29-2003, 08:19 AM

Tala · 05-29-2003, 08:22 AM

Unless the mango is fresh from the tree, it's not worth eating anyway, so why bother to dry it?
