    Adding 50 grams of gelatin and 400 grams of water will give us a mixture with a total mass of 450 grams. The percent mass of water is calculated by dividing the mass of water by the total mass and multiply by 100.

    mass % = (400 / 450) x 100% = 88.89%

    Thus, there is approximately 88.90% of water in the sample.
