Let x be the weight of the uncooked chicken.
After cooking, the chicken will be left with 90% of its original weight, since it loses 10% of its weight due to water loss.
So, 0.90x = 1,170 grams
Solving for x:
x = 1,170 / 0.90
x = 1,300 grams
Therefore, 1,300 grams of uncooked chicken must be used to obtain 1,170 grams of cooked chicken.
