I need to find mass concentration (c) and I have M, density (p) and mass fraction w (only in percentage).
The two formula I think I can use are:
$$c=\frac {w*p}M$$
or
$$c=\frac pM$$

Will it help to assume you have exactly 1000 g of the solution? What would the volume be? What would be mass of the solute?

The only things I have are
$$p=1 \frac {kg}L$$
and
$$M=60 \frac {g}{mol}$$
and
w=0,1%
