Hi ,
According to the problem ,
The weight of the empty drum = 55 / 4 kg
A drum full of rice weight = 241 /6 kg
Weigt of the empty drum + weight of the rice = 241 / 6 kg
55 / 4 kg + weight of the rice = 241 / 6 kg
Weight of the rice = 241 / 6 - 55 / 4
Find the LCM of 6 and 4 = 12
= (482 - 165 ) / 12
= 317 / 12 kg
Therefore ,
Weight of the rice = 317 / 12 kg
I hope this will useful to you.
