70% of 20kg's is 14kg, so when you dry it and it is 10% water you still use 20kgs as the ammount - so 10% of 20kg is 2kg plus your 6kgs of "solids" and you have 8kg of dry mango

No. The original statement said dried mango's contain 10% water by weight. Not that dried mangos contain 10% of the their original weight.
I think perhaps this thread offers an insite into the "shaving" issue. Perhaps there really is no such thing as shaving, but rather 95% of the people in this industry suck at math.
