When a substance is called to be a solution, this usually means that the majority of it is water and there are some solutes dissolved in it. The solute can be a solid or a liquid.

In this case, the 3% hydrogen peroxide is the solute since it is the lesser amount. So the other 97% is water.

Answer:

Water
