Let x be the flower-nector
X processed get 50/100*x honey
Honey contains 15% water, so contains 85% honey
50/100*x = 85/100* 1kg
x = 1.7kg
Total nectar is x
Now 50%is water then remained.nectar is x/2
Now from this remaining nector 15% again water so we have only 85% honey
So x/2*85/100= 1 kg ...
Now solve get 2.352
Ans: 1.7 kg
