Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 27.5 kg Given: Fresh fruit contains 78% water and dry fruit contains 20% water. Total quantity of fresh fruit = 100 kg Total quantity of dry fruit = 100 kg Concept used: Dry fruit = (Pulp in fresh fruit/Pulp in dry fruit) × Total quantity of fresh fruit Calculation: Fresh fruit contains 78% water and dry fruit contains 20% water. Fresh fruit has pulp = (100 - 78)% of fresh fruit ⇒ 22% of fresh fruit ⇒ 22% of 100 kg ⇒ 22 kg Dry fruit has pulp = (100 - 20)% of dry fruit ⇒ 80% of 100 kg Dry fruit obtained from fresh fruit = (Pulp in fresh fruit/Pulp in dry fruit) × Total quantity ⇒ (22 kg/80 kg) × 100 kg ⇒ 27.5 kg. ∴ Dry fruit that can be obtained from fresh fruit is 27.5 kg. |
