Question

A typical avocado has edible flesh that is 35% of the total weight of the avocado. If the avocado weighs 220 grams. What is the weight of the edible part of the avocado? *

Answer 1

You can solve this using a proportion.

35/100 = x/220

Next you would cross multiply
(The • is for multiplying)

35 • 200 = 7700

100 • X = 100x

Next you would solve for “x”

7700 / 100 = 77

The avocado has 77 grams of edible flesh.

Hope this helps!!
