The student is most likely trying to answer the question: **What is the concentration of nitric acid?**
In a titration involving potassium hydroxide (a strong base) and nitric acid (a strong acid), the primary goal is usually to determine the concentration of the unknown solution, which in this case is the nitric acid. The titration process allows the student to calculate the concentration of the nitric acid by using the known concentration of potassium hydroxide.
