A 532 mg of a mixture of fluorene and benzoic acid was weighed out and subjected to an extraction and recrystallization. After this purification was completed the product crystals were dried and analyzed. The purification procedure produced 174 mg of fluorene and 249 mg of benzoic acid. Calculate the percent composition of this mixture.
