The cement sample was put in the pan and weigh it on the triple beam balance before transferring it to the sieve 200. Upon transferring it, it was observed that the original weight of the sample was reduced to 13% of the original weight. After sieving, it is observed that the weight of the particles that retained in the sieve 200 is one-third of the weight that has loss in original sample. What is the percent fineness of the cement sample? (Let x = weight of the original sample). Complete the answers that needed in the worksheet provided.
