Seriosity

I propose two new words to the English language, against the protest of Justin.

Seriosity and Seriousness.

Gravity sounds to grave and severity is too severe. Critical is too negative.

If unfriend can be a word, so can seriosity.

Thanks

I promised I will not ponder things, but last night I had some sort of a conundrum.

I buy these Woolworths concentrated juice drink that should be diluted 1:4. The label states that the diluted product contains 50% fruit juice.

Now, I know that 80% of the diluted product is water, because 20% is the concentrate. Does that then mean that the concentrate contains more than 100% fruit juice? So if I take normal juice and halve it by evaporating water, I have 200% fruit juice? Can I assume that 50% of the concentrate is fruit juice and the rest other stuff like preservatives? If I then dilute 400ml concentrate with 600ml water do I have 100% fruit juice then?

So what percentage of the concentrate is pure fruit juice if the diluted product contains 50% fruit juice?
