quintal of rice can be carried to a distance of 120 Km. at a fare of Rs. 350?
. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

quintal of rice = 36

distance = 18

the carriage charge =420

so,

1 km of distance charged carried by = 420/18

in 36 quintals = 23.33

when the charged is 350 at a distance of 120

the quintal of rice is 36×120÷350

= 12.34 quintals

Answer 2

Answer:

Find amount of rice left:

Bought = 22 quintals

Lost = 24% x 22 = 0.24 x 22 = 5.28 quintals
