    Marcia dissolved 1 kg of salt in 3 litres of water.

    Bobby dissolves 2 pounds of salt in 7 pints of water

    2.11 pints = 1 litre

    7 pints = 7/2.11

    = 3.32 litre

    1 pound = 0.45 kg

    2 pound = o. 45*2 kg

    = 0.9 kg

    So we find that Bobby is dissolving 0.9kg of salt in 3.32 litre of water

    Marcia is dissolving 1 kg of salt in 3 litres of water.
