    Amount of copper in 5264 kg compound = 3,498,383 g

    Amount of sulfur in 5264 kg compound = 1,765,616.8 g

    Explanation:

    Given:

    Amount of copper = 88.39 g

    Amount of sulfur = 44.61 g

    Total quantity = 5264 kg

    Find:

    Amount of copper in 5264 kg compound = ?

    Amount of sulfur in 5264 kg compound = ?

    Computation:

    Total amount in compound = Amount of copper + Amount of sulfur

    Total amount in compound = 88.39 g + 44.61 g

    Total amount in compound = 133 g

    ⇒Amount of copper in 5264 kg compound = 5,264 [88.39 / 133]

    Amount of copper in 5264 kg compound = 3,498.3831 kg

    Amount of copper in 5264 kg compound = 3,498,383 g

    ⇒Amount of sulfur in 5264 kg compound = 5,264 [44.61 / 133]

    Amount of sulfur in 5264 kg compound = 1,765.6168 kg

    Amount of sulfur in 5264 kg compound = 1,765,616.8 g
