    The total mass of the original tissue were from the source which are the pig ovaries. But first, convert 5.6 tons to mg.

    5.6 tons * (1000 kg/1 ton) * (1000 g/1kg) * (1000 mg/1g) = 5.6 x 10^9 mg

    Thus, the percentage of estrone in the original tissue is

    (12.0 mg / 5.6 x 10^-9 mg) x 100 = 2.14 x 10^-7 %
