A metal bar weighs 8.5 kg. 85% of the bar is silver. How many kilograms of silver are in the bar?

Answer»

Total weight of the metal = 8.5 kg 

Percentage of silver in the metal = 85% 

Weight of silver in the metal = 85% of total weight 

= \(\frac{85}{100}\) x 8.5 kg 

= 7.225 kg 

7.225 kg of silver are in the bar.
