Aww, I wanted to try my feeble mind against a complex number problem I had no real hope of solving.

It wasn't all that complex, I just haven't had to do that sort of math in quite some time, but if you want [a version of the problem] I will post it anyway. I could come up with the formula, I just couldn't remember some of what to do to get the answer.

Using this formula:



g solution is (g solute + g solvent). In the problem they had the Mass percent and the Solute, Mass being 19.3% and g solvent being 295.2, and had to come up with the g solute and g solution.

Cute.
No need for complicated equation solving though.
If you know that the solute mass % is 19,3, the solvent mass % is 100-19,3=80.7%.

Divide 295.2 by that for 1% and then multiply by 19,3 for g(solute) or 100 for g(solution).
