To find the resulting amount of salt solution, we need to consider the total mass and the concentration of the solution after mixing.
Given:
- 100 kilograms of water
- 10 kilograms of salt
The total mass of the resulting solution is the sum of the water and salt masses:
Total mass = 100 kg (water) + 10 kg (salt) = 110 kg
To calculate the percentage of salt in the solution, we divide the mass of the salt by the total mass and multiply by 100:
Percentage of salt = (10 kg / 110 kg) * 100 = 9.09%
Therefore, Hugh made 110 kilograms of a 9.09% salt solution.
