I think you meant 3950 not 3850? And if we hold water-mass fixed instead of total-volume (i.e. the water is already in the pot and we’re deciding whether to add salt or not) we should use 5% not 4% (density doesn’t matter, because we don’t care whether the volume goes up a bit upon adding salt). Seems awfully close to even.
