1)  

An alloy consists of 38% copper and 40% zinc and the remaining is nickel.Find the amound of nickle in 13 kg of the alloy.

Answer: 2.86kg



SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of copper =  38%

Percentage of zinc     =  40%

Percentage of nickle   = 100-(38+40)

                                    = 100-78

                                    =22%

Amount of nickle is 13 kg of the alloy = 22% of 13kg

                                                              = (22÷100) x 13

                                                              =  0.22 x 13

                                                              =  2.86 kg



2)  

An alloy consists of 39% copper and 29% zinc and the remaining is nickel.Find the amound of nickle in 15 kg of the alloy.

Answer: 4.8kg



SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of copper =  39%

Percentage of zinc     =  29%

Percentage of nickle   = 100-(39+29)

                                    = 100-68

                                    =32%

Amount of nickle is 15 kg of the alloy = 32% of 15kg

                                                              = (32÷100) x 15

                                                              =  0.32 x 15

                                                              =  4.8 kg



3)  

An alloy consists of 22% copper and 38% zinc and the remaining is nickel.Find the amound of nickle in 19 kg of the alloy.

Answer: 7.6kg



SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of copper =  22%

Percentage of zinc     =  38%

Percentage of nickle   = 100-(22+38)

                                    = 100-60

                                    =40%

Amount of nickle is 19 kg of the alloy = 40% of 19kg

                                                              = (40÷100) x 19

                                                              =  0.4 x 19

                                                              =  7.6 kg



4)  

An alloy consists of 50% copper and 39% zinc and the remaining is nickel.Find the amound of nickle in 21 kg of the alloy.

Answer: 2.31kg



SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of copper =  50%

Percentage of zinc     =  39%

Percentage of nickle   = 100-(50+39)

                                    = 100-89

                                    =11%

Amount of nickle is 21 kg of the alloy = 11% of 21kg

                                                              = (11÷100) x 21

                                                              =  0.11 x 21

                                                              =  2.31 kg



5)  

An alloy consists of 15% copper and 17% zinc and the remaining is nickel.Find the amound of nickle in 17 kg of the alloy.

Answer: 11.56kg



SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of copper =  15%

Percentage of zinc     =  17%

Percentage of nickle   = 100-(15+17)

                                    = 100-32

                                    =68%

Amount of nickle is 17 kg of the alloy = 68% of 17kg

                                                              = (68÷100) x 17

                                                              =  0.68 x 17

                                                              =  11.56 kg



6)  

An alloy consists of 32% copper and 25% zinc and the remaining is nickel.Find the amound of nickle in 19 kg of the alloy.

Answer: 8.17kg



SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of copper =  32%

Percentage of zinc     =  25%

Percentage of nickle   = 100-(32+25)

                                    = 100-57

                                    =43%

Amount of nickle is 19 kg of the alloy = 43% of 19kg

                                                              = (43÷100) x 19

                                                              =  0.43 x 19

                                                              =  8.17 kg



7)  

An alloy consists of 41% copper and 10% zinc and the remaining is nickel.Find the amound of nickle in 13 kg of the alloy.

Answer: 6.37kg



SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of copper =  41%

Percentage of zinc     =  10%

Percentage of nickle   = 100-(41+10)

                                    = 100-51

                                    =49%

Amount of nickle is 13 kg of the alloy = 49% of 13kg

                                                              = (49÷100) x 13

                                                              =  0.49 x 13

                                                              =  6.37 kg



8)  

An alloy consists of 34% copper and 15% zinc and the remaining is nickel.Find the amound of nickle in 19 kg of the alloy.

Answer: 9.69kg



SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of copper =  34%

Percentage of zinc     =  15%

Percentage of nickle   = 100-(34+15)

                                    = 100-49

                                    =51%

Amount of nickle is 19 kg of the alloy = 51% of 19kg

                                                              = (51÷100) x 19

                                                              =  0.51 x 19

                                                              =  9.69 kg



9)  

An alloy consists of 41% copper and 19% zinc and the remaining is nickel.Find the amound of nickle in 11 kg of the alloy.

Answer: 4.4kg



SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of copper =  41%

Percentage of zinc     =  19%

Percentage of nickle   = 100-(41+19)

                                    = 100-60

                                    =40%

Amount of nickle is 11 kg of the alloy = 40% of 11kg

                                                              = (40÷100) x 11

                                                              =  0.4 x 11

                                                              =  4.4 kg



10)  

An alloy consists of 16% copper and 14% zinc and the remaining is nickel.Find the amound of nickle in 25 kg of the alloy.

Answer: 17.5kg



SOLUTION 1 :

Given:

Percentage of copper =  16%

Percentage of zinc     =  14%

Percentage of nickle   = 100-(16+14)

                                    = 100-30

                                    =70%

Amount of nickle is 25 kg of the alloy = 70% of 25kg

                                                              = (70÷100) x 25

                                                              =  0.7 x 25

                                                              =  17.5 kg
