i do know the absorbance of solution, and have the molarity of PO₄^3- for 3 separate trials. i really have clue what to do after this.

This looks like a pretty good worked example of what you're doing. http://chemistry.about.com/od/workedchemistryproblems/a/percentmass.htm

Don't over think things, you already have a concentration.
