Question

3. A bag contains 5 kg of rice. 1500 gm have been
taken out for cooking. What is the ratio of the
amount taken out to the amount left in the bag?​

Answer 1

Total weight of rice = 5kg = 5000g

Weight of rice taken for cooking = 1500g

Weight of rice left in the bag = 5000 - 1500 = 3500g

Weight of rice taken out the bag = 1500

Weight of rice left in the bag 3500

= 3/7

The ratio is 3 : 7
