When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

溶液の調製例２
(2) 質量パーセント濃度がＰ％の水溶液を水でうすめ、濃度Ｑ％の水溶液を100gだけつくる。
① 水溶液を何倍にうすめるか（Ｒ＝Ｐ÷Ｑ）を求める。
② 濃度Ｐ％の水溶液を、 100÷Ｒ〔g〕だけ取る。③ ②を、水でうすめて 100 g にする。
◆例 濃度35％の水溶液を水でうすめて、濃度10％の水溶液を、100 gつくる。
① 水溶液を何倍にうすめるか。Ｒ＝35÷10＝3.5〔倍〕にうすめられる。
② 濃度35％の水溶液を、100÷3.5＝ 28.6〔g〕だけ取る。
③ ②を水でうすめ、100 g にする。

I'm going to change my mind. I think it's 5倍、2X, the first X has a different meaning to the second. (I think the first X should probably be lower-case but that's an easy typo/mistake to make).
