Explanation:
Converting a fraction into parts per million (ppm) works in the same way as converting a fraction into a percentage. The only difference is that you multiply the fraction by 1 million instead of multiplying it by 100.
First, form the fraction by ensuring that you have consistent units. 30 kg is 30 x 1000 g which is 30,000 g.
Now you can do the calculation.
So its 100 ppm.
