Question

A bag contains 50 kg vegetables, out of that 20 kg 280 g were potatoes
and 15 kg 210 g were cauliflowers and the rest were onions. Find the
weight of onions in the bag.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\large\bold\red{14\:Kg\:510\:g}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total Weight of bag, b = 50 Kg

Also,

Weight of potatoes, p = 20 Kg 280 g

Therefore,

We get,

$= > p = 20 + \frac{280}{1000} \\ \\ = > p = 20 + 0.28 \\ \\ = > p = 20.28 \: kg$

Also,

Weight of cauliflower, c = 15 kg 210 g

Therefore,

We get,

$= > c = 15 + \frac{210}{1000} \\ \\ = > c = 15 + 0.21 \\ \\ = > c = 15.21 \: kg$

Let,

Weight of onions = x Kg

Therefore,

We get,

$= > x + p + c = 50 \\ \\ = > x + 20.28 + 15.21 = 50 \\ \\ = > x + 35.49 = 50 \\ \\ = > x = 50.00 - 35.49 \\ \\ = > x = 14.51 \\ \\ = > x = 14 + 0.51 \\ \\ = > x = 14 + \frac{510}{1000} \\ \\ = > x = 14 \: kg \: 510 \: g$
