Answer 2

Answer:

The weight of the glass is 100gm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, weight of the empty glass be x.

As per question,  

             A full milk glass weighs = 2.5 times weight of empty glass

              A full milk glass weighs = 2.5 × x

                                              250 = 2.5x

                                                   x = 250 / 2.5

                                                   x = 100 gm

∴ The weight of the empty glass is 100gm.
