Peanuts typically contain 21.5% oil if you have the process that allows you to extract all the oil what mass of peanuts would be needed in order to collect 13.275 the grams of oil
To find the mass of peanuts needed to collect 13.275 grams of oil, we can set up a proportion using the percentage of oil in peanuts.
Let x be the mass of peanuts needed to collect 13.275 grams of oil.
(21.5%/100%) * x = 13.275g
0.215x = 13.275g
x = 13.275g / 0.215
x ≈ 61.74g
Therefore, approximately 61.74 grams of peanuts would be needed to collect 13.275 grams of oil.
