As we learnt

 

Mass percent of solution -

Mass percent = ((mass of solute)/(mass of solution) ) X 100

 

- wherein

 it is mass of solute present in 100 gram solution.

 

 mass of solute in 1st solution = 0.25 x 400 = 100g

mass of solute in 2nd solution = 0.3 x 300 = 90g

mass of solute in total mixtue = 190g

Total mass of the mixture = 700g

Mass % of mixtur= \frac{190}{900}\times 100 = 27.14\%
