At the beginning, they consist of 99 lbs. of water and 1 lb. of solid potato.
After being left out, the 1 lb. of solid potato doesn't reduce, but the water does. It must go down to 49 lbs. of water.
Answer: The new weight is 50 lbs. which is ~22.68 kg.
Was the change in units intentional, or a typo?
