Answer:

Explanation:

The amount (quantity) of water can be calculated if you use percent conversion.

You will need to add 15 lb of water.

Given:

Total amount - 10lb

Sugar syrup - 25%

Find 25% of 10 (in this situation, pounds):


10 ×
(25)/(100) =2.5 lbs

Nina has to make 10%, so:


(2.5)/(10) ×
100=25 lbs

Find the amount of water that you will need to add:


25 lbs
- 10 lbs
= 15 lbs

So, you will need to add

15 lbs of water.
