A can of mixed nuts contains 60% peanuts. If the can holds 16 ounces, how many ounces of peanuts it contain?
Answer:
The first answer is arithmetically correct. But I was wondering - why is this question posted under Chemistry?
16 oz x .60 = 9.6 oz of peanuts :)
9.6 ounces
That's true if the can contains 60% peanuts *by weight.*
