A wet solid containing 20 per cent water is dried to 5 per cent water. How much water is removed per 100 kilograms of wet feed?

  • A.exactly 15 kilograms
  • B.about 20 kilograms
  • C.about 5 kilograms
  • D.about 15.8 kilograms

Answer: D

Eighty kilograms of dry solid at ninety-five per cent gives a product of about eighty-four point two kilograms, so about fifteen point eight kilograms of water leaves. Subtracting the percentages directly gives fifteen and is wrong.
