What quantity of dry fruit can be obtained form 100 kg fresh fruits. If fresh fruit contains 68% water and dry fruit contains 20% water.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
Note: In a fruit there are two components, one is Water and second is Pulp. In this process qty. of pulp remains same always.
Therefore,
In fresh Fruit :- Water : Pulp = 68% : 32%
In dry Fruit :- Water : Pulp = 20% : 80%
*Qty. of pulp in fresh fruit = Qty. of pulp in dry fruit*
Hence
32% of 100 = 80% of Qty of dry fruit
40 kg = Qty of dry fruit
