Detailed Solution

The amount of solvent that is water is 240 grams. 

Thus, the mass of the solution is 240+60=300 grams. 

Thus the concentration of the solution by mass percentage is given as- 

Concentration= mass of solute/mass of solution×100. 

Concentration=60/300×100 

Concentration=20% 

The concentration of the solution is 20%.
