Question

1) A bread recipe contains 60g of butter, 40g of salt and 100g of flour.

a) What percentage of the ingredients are salt and flour?

Answer 1

Ingredient Percentage=Ingredient Weight/Total Flour x 100%

Explanation:

For example, if a formula calls for 60 pounds of water and 100 pounds of flour, the baker's percent would be 60% water. If there are two types of flour being used, the combination of the weight of both flours will be 100%.
