Fresh Grapes contain 90% water by wt. Dried grapes contain
20% water by %age. What will b wt of dried grapes when we
begin with 20 kg fresh grapes

Answer Posted / jerin george e

weight of the water in fresh grape is 20*90/100=18kg
hence constant weight component= 20-18=2kg

water content in dry fruit=20%
ie x/(X+2kg)=20%

X be the weight of water in dry grape.

solving we et x=.5kg
hence weight of dry fruit is 2+.5=2.5kg
