Question

8) Ravi got 31/4 kg of sweets of which 23/6 kg were consumed. How much was left with Ravi?​

Answer 1

Answer:

47/12

Step-by-step explanation:

31/4 - 23/6

Take LCM of 4 and 6 which is 12

Then divide 4 and 6 by 12 and multiply 31 and 23 by quotient

93/12 - 46/12

Now Subtract

=47/12 kg

Answer 2

To find : sweets left with Ravi.

Given:  Total amount of sweets Ravi bought = $\frac{31}{4}$

           Total amount of sweets consumed = $\frac{23}{6}$

Solution :

• To find sweets left with Ravi after consumption we subtract total consumption from total amount .

• Therefore, $\frac{31}{4} -\frac{23}{6}$
•  We find LCM To equalize denominators.

• LCM = $12$

• On solving we get , $\frac{31}{4}- \frac{23}{6} = \frac{93}{12} - \frac{46}{12}$

                                                      $= \frac{47}{12}$

Hence , Ravi was left with $\frac{47}{12} \ kg$  sweets.
