Answer: He made 110 kilograms of 9.09% salt solution.


Explanation:

Given: Mass of water= 100 kg

Mass of salt= 10 kg

Total mass of the solution: 100kg+10kg= 110 kg

The percent of salt in solution=
\frac{\text{Mass of salt}}{\text{Mass of the solution}}*100

∴The percent of salt in solution
=(10)/(110)*100=9.09\%

Therefore, He made 110 kilograms of 9.09% salt solution.
