A route to make coating material K also forms by-product L. The masses of K and L are represented by mK m_K\,mK and mLm_LmL.
Which expression gives the atom economy for K?
mLmK+mL×100\frac{m_L}{m_K+m_L}\times100mK+mLmL×100
mKmK+mL×100\frac{m_K}{m_K+m_L}\times100mK+mLmK×100
mK+mLmK×100\frac{m_K+m_L}{m_K}\times100mKmK+mL×100
mKmL×100\frac{m_K}{m_L}\times100mLmK×100
