The fruit content in both the fresh fruit and dry fruit is the same.

Given, fresh fruit has 68% water.so remaining 32% is fruit content. weight of fresh fruits is 100kg

Dry fruit has 20% water.so remaining 80% is fruit content.let weight if dry fruit be y kg.

fruit % in freshfruit = fruit% in dryfruit

(32/100) * 100 = (80/100 )* y

we get

y = 40 kg

100 -68=32 kg dry fruits(without water)

.let x be the weight of dry fruit with water then
x-20% of x=32.
so x=40.
