Question

16. Alok ordered 16 chapatis, 5 plates of rice, 7 plates of mixed vegetable
and 6 ice-cream cups. The cost of each chapati is Rs.6, that of each plate
of rice is Rs.45 and that of mixed vegetable is Rs.70. The amount that
Alok paid the cashier was Rs.961. Find the cost of each ice-cream cup?

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost of each cup of ice-cream is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

lets make a chart of the whole problem here.

Chapati        Rice        Mixed Veg.        Ice-cream cup

16                  5                7                      6

now find cost of the given data:

16x6             5x45           7x70                6x (X)      

=96               =225          =490               first find the total amount of ice-cups

Lets add all the three.

96+225+490= 811

so the amount paid is 961 which means

811 + X 'amount' = 961

X 'amount' = 961-811

X 'amount' = 150

now divide this amount on number of ice-cream cups bought. you will get cost of each cup.

150/6 = 25 (Answer)

illustration:

6x (X) means, 6 multiplied by 'X'.

Hope this answer the question.
