Homework Statement



The problem is attached

Homework Equations


Absorption rate=flux*absorption

absorption=cross section*neutron density

neutron density=Avegadro number *density/atomic mass


The Attempt at a Solution


the problem is just simple but the problem i faced is just with finding the neutron density, for Indium the density 7.31 g/cm3, avegadro no. 06022e24g/mole, atomic mass 115g, i confused with the abundance of 95.7% and with which atomic mass number should I take
