Dear peers,

I need you help in the translation of medical conclusion about some medication appropriateness. What is Hebrew for "water fraction of total mass".

Thank you in advance.

Hebrew translation:מקטע/מסה חלקית/אחוז
Explanation:
Depends on units of measurement and context.
מסה חלקית is probably the best, but again, depends on what best fit the context.

אחוז המים מתוך המסה הכוללת


Explanation:
If your sentence is followed by an actual value (0-1), then you would have to multiply that by 100 to convert fraction to percentage.

Otherwise, you might want to try:
חלקיות המים מתוך המסה הכוללת
but that doesn't sound as good
