A hypothetical element has two main isotopes. One has a m of 39 amu and the other has a m of 41 amu...?
The difference between isotopes is 2 amu. The difference between element amu and the lower isotope is .76 which is 38% of 2. Therfore the heavier isotope must be in 37.99% abundance. Hope that helps.
