Gw = SE.
S = GW/e.
S = 2.68x0.188/0.67.
S = 0.75x100.
S = 75%.

Given fundamental equation e =WG/Sr.
Then given;
e - o.67
G - 2.68
W - 0.188
Then find Sr = WG/e.
0.188 * 2.68/0.67,
= 75%.

es = wG.
s = wG/e.
s = (0.188 * 2.68)/0.67,
s = 75.2%.

Se = Gw.
Given:
e=0.67, w=0.188, g=2.68, S=?
Se = Gw.
S = Gw/e = (2.68*0.188)/0.67.
S = 75.2%.
