Question 109090: How do you calculate the percentage of aluminum in an alloy while using NH as a constant to the formuls NH= (%Al/100 x 0.0556) + (%zn/100 x 0.0153). chapter-analysis of an aluminum-zinc alloy isbn-049501141

multiplying by 100 gives 100(NH)= (%Al x 0.0556) + (%zn x 0.0153)

subtracting (%zn x 0.0153) gives 100(NH)-(%zn x 0.0153)=%Al x 0.0556

dividing by 0.0556 gives (100(NH)-(%zn x 0.0153))/0.0556=%Al
