Let 100 kg of hematite be obtained then 20% of it get wasted that means 80 kg of ore remains.
Pure iron = 25% of remaining ore = 80*25/100 = 20 kg.
20 kg pure Iron is obtained from 100 of hematite.
1 kg pure Iron is obtained from = 100/20 hematite;
Then, 80000 kg pure Iron is obtained from = (100/20)*80000 = 400000 kg hematite.
