I don't understand "solid solute": was it a solid which is soluble (I guess so as it is a solute)? To decrease the concentration (mass per volume) add more water. If it was 1 g/L and you add a further litre of water the concentration decreases to 0.5 g/L (equivalent of 1 g/2L).

If it's an aqueous solution the solvent would be water.

You could also cool it below its saturation point and the excess will crystallise out.
