Answer:

Explanation:

1050 grams because 21 multiplied by 50 because of the 50% deduction so you get 1050 grams of liquid.

To determine how much 2% salt solution can be made with the same amount of salt, we need to calculate the total amount of salt in the 700 g 3% salt solution, and then find out how much of a 2% salt solution can be made using that same amount of salt.

Amount of salt in 700 g 3% salt solution:
Salt = 3% of 700 g
Salt = (3/100) * 700 g
Salt = 21 g

To find out how much 2% salt solution can be made, we divide the amount of salt (21 g) by the concentration of the 2% salt solution (0.02):

Amount of 2% salt solution = Salt / Concentration
Amount of 2% salt solution = 21 g / 0.02
Amount of 2% salt solution ≈ 1050 g

Therefore, with the same amount of salt (21 g), approximately 1050 g of a 2% salt solution can be made.
