Question

1) In a family the consumption of cereals and vegetables is in the ratio 5 : 2. If the total quantity is 35 kg,
find the consumption of each.

2) In a piggy bank there are l-and 2-rupee coins. The number of 1-rupee coins is four times the number of
2-rupee coins. If the total money in he piggy bank is 90, find the number of l-and 2-rupee coins.

Please answer. ​

Answer 1

Let quantity of cereal be 5x

Quantity of vegetables be 2x

Total quantity of both=5x+2x=35kg

7x=35

x=35/7=5

Quantity of cereal =5×5=25kg

Quantity of vegetables =2×5=10kg

Let the no of 2 rupee coins be x

no of 1 rupee coins be 4x

Total money in the piggy bank=2x+4x=6x=90

So, x=90/6=15

So no of 2 rupee coins =x=15

no of 1 rupee coins =4x=4×15=60

Answer 2

1st Question :-

Answer :-

Given :-

In a family, the consumption of cereals and vegetables is in the ratio of 5 : 2 Total quantity = 35 kgs

Required to find :-

Find the how much each quantity is consumed ?

Solution :-

Given information :-

In a family, the consumption of cereals and vegetables is in the ratio of 5 : 2

Total quantity = 35 kgs

we need to find the how much each quantity is consumed .

So, Let's consider ;

Amount of quantity of cereals consumed be 5x

Amount of quantity of vegetables consumed be 2x

However ;

Total quantity = 35 kgs .

So,

According to problem ;

Amount of quantity of cereals consumed + Amount of quantity of vegetables consumed = Total quantity

This implies ;

5x + 2x = 35

7x = 35

x = 35/7

x = 5

Therefore ; Amount of quantity of cereals consumed = 5x = 5(5) = 25 kgs

Amount of quantity of vegetables consumed = 2x = 2 ( 5 ) = 10 kgs

2nd Question :-

Answer :-

Given :-

The number of 1 rupee coins is 4 times the 2 rupee coins .Total money = 90

Required to find :-

Number of 1 and 2 rupee coins ?

Solution :-

Given information :-

The number of 1 rupee coins is 4 times the 2 rupee coins .

Total money = 90

we need to find the number of 1 and 2 rupee coins .

So, Let no. of 2 rupee coins be x

no. of 1 rupee coins is 4 times 1 rupee coins be 4x

value of 1 rupee coins = 1 ( 4x ) = 4x

value of 2 rupee coins = 2 ( x ) = 2x

However ;

Total money = 90

According to problem ;

Value of 1 rupee coins + Value of 2 rupee coins = Total money

This implies ;

4x + 2x = 90

6x = 90

x = 90/6

x = 15

Therefore ;

No. of 1 rupee coins = 4x = 4 ( 15 ) = 60

No. of 2 rupee coins = x = 15
