Why does 25g/241mL equal (roughly) .104. When 25x10=250, how would that fit in 241? Shouldn't it end up being 9.34g/mL, because 25x9=224 and 241-224=170 and then 25x3=160 and then 170-160 and then 25x4=100 and 100-100=0

$$\frac{25}{241}<1\qquad $since the bottom is bigger than the top$\\\\
\mbox{9.34 is more than 1 so how could the two be equal??}$$

 

NOW

$$\frac{25}{241}\approx \frac{25}{250} = \frac{1}{10}=0.1\\\\
$0.1 is pretty close to 0.104$$$

 

I hope that all helps :))
