Answer:

28.6 kg

Explanation:

The final weight can be calculated from the mixing data and formulae which is given as follows:

cement content = [tex]\frac{water content}{water - cement ratio}[/tex]

Computing the parameters and checking the tables gives 28.6 kg.

Answer:

The answer is 28.6 kg

Explanation:

The final weight can be calculated from the mixing data and formulae which is given as follows:

cement content = water content divided by (water minus cement ratio)

Therefore:

Cement content = water content/(water - cement ratio)

After all the parameters had been imputed and calculated, we will arrive at a value of 28.6 kg.
