Using the formula V1S1=V2S2,
I have found the volumes of stock solutions needed to make Tris-EDTA of the STE buffer.
VTris=100ml and VEDTA=50ml.

How to find out volume of sucrose ?

You would setup the calculation in the same way, treating "%" as a unit that can be canceled on both sides of the equation (for w/v % it is essentially a unit representing "g/100mL").
 
Thank you so much. I got it. Your pointer

treating "%" as a unit

really helped.
