    69.5%

    Explanation:

    We know that the total weight of the mixture of sand and salt = 5.24 g

    the weight of the separated sand = 3.64 g

    and the weight of the salt in the mixture = 5.24 - 3.64 = 1.6 g

    So the percentage of sand in the mixture = (3.64/5.24) * 100 = 69.46

    Therefore, the percentage of sand in the given 5.24 grams mixture of salt and sand is 69.5%.
