Answer: 250 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the weight of the solution.

Given : There are 80 grams of salt in a 32% solution.

That means , 32% of x = 80 grams

[tex]\Rightarrow\ 0.32x=80[/tex]  [convert percent into decimal by dividing it by 100]

[tex]\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{80}{0.32}=\dfrac{8000}{32}=250[/tex]

i.e. Total solution = 250 grams.

Hence, the weight of the solution = 250 grams.
