A student investigated the effect of sucrose solution concentration on the mass of carrot cylinders.
For one carrot cylinder:
Calculate the percentage increase in mass of the carrot cylinder.
Use the equation: percentage increase in mass=increase in massstarting mass×100\text{percentage increase in mass} = \frac{\text{increase in mass}}{\text{starting mass}} \times 100percentage increase in mass=starting massincrease in mass×100
