68 packets weigh 1kg632g. What will be weight of 70 packets? Answer: 1kg680g

Answer 1

Hey there !

Solution:

This sum can be solved using ratio and proportion method.

68 packets = 1.632 kg, :: 70 packets = ? kg

Let the unknown quantity be 'x'.

So Product of Means = Product of Extremes

=> 68 * x = 70 * 1.632

=> x = 70 * 1.632 / 68

=> x = 114.24 / 68

=> x = 1.680 which is 1 kg and 680 grams.

Hope my answer helped !
