    The way you want to find the percent composition would be by breaking down the problem like so:

    K = atomic mass of K which is 39.098

    Mn = atomic mass of Mn which is 54.938

    O = atomic mass of o which is 15.999

    Then you want to add 39.098 + 54.938 + 15.999 and you get 110.035 which is the molar mass for KMnO

    Then you want to take each molar mass and then divide it 110.035 and multiply by 100

    Ex. K = 39.098 / 110.035 and the multiply what you get by a 100

    You do this for the other elements as well good luck!
