    Let x be the mass of the ore in grams such that the equation that would allow us to answer this item would be,

    55 = (x) (0.243)

    The value of x is calculated as,

    x = 55/0.243

    x = 226.337 grams

    Then, solve for amount in kilograms by dividing the calculated value by 1000. This methodology will give us an answer of 0.226337. Hence, the answer is 0.226.
