Answer:

"mass/mass percent" calculation to express the concentration of glucose.

Step-by-step explanation:

Concentration of the solution is generally a ratio between the amount of solute and the amount of solvent (or solution). In this case, the amount of solute is measured in grams, and the amount of solvent (water) is measured in kilograms. Both units are units of mass. It would be most likely to use by mass/mass percent.
