Answer / 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

Answer / susmi

20 kg fresh grapes will contain 2 kg of grapes and 18 kg water.
In dried grape, grape concentration is 80%; that implies 2kg
should be taken as 80%. So, total weight of dried grape is
2.5kg.

Answer / anamthuruthil devassy baby

Solve in a reverse manner-
2.5 kg of dry grape contains 20 % of water, ie. 2 kg of dry
material and 0.5 kg of water.2 kg of dry material being
constant, fresh grapes also contain 2 kg of the material,
ie 10% of fresh grapes. So 100% means 20 kg!

Conclusion- 20 kg of fresh grape will produce 2.5 kg of dry
grapes

Answer / ranjit kumar

wieght of the fresh grapes of 20kg quantity = 90/100 x 20
=18kg of water.
weight of dried grapes of 20kg quantity =20/100 x20
=4kg of water
weight when fresh grape converts onto dried grapes=90-20

=70%of water is lost
=70/100 x 20
=14kg of water lost
so remaining weight=6kg
actual weight of dried grape=4kg
hence weight=6-4=2kg
