Compute for the required amount of the ingredients necessary to make 20g suppository on 105g (not 100g as shown on the table below.)

Ingredients Original Amount Computed Amount
Glycerin (1.249 g/mL)  91.0 g  
Sodium Stearate 9.00 g  
Water (1 g/mL) 5.0 g  
To make 100 grams  

Additionally, the photo shows the computation to make 30 g suppositories in 100 g.
