Question

A farmer owns a rectangular field that measures 250 m x 200 m. He hopes that by sowing a variety of pulses, the yield will be 20 quintals per hectare, which he can sell in the market for 150 per quintal. What is his expected income? (1 quintal = 100 kg; 1 hectare = 10,000 sq m)​

Answer 1

$\boxed{\boxed{{\orange{\bold{{Given,}}}}}}$

$The\: measurement\:of\:the\:field\:is\:250m \: \times \: 200m$

$The\:expected \:yield \:is\:20\:quintals\:per\:hectare.$

$The\: expected\:market\:price\:is\:₹150\:per\:quintal.$

$\huge\mathcal \fcolorbox{red}{green}{SOLUTION}$

$Now\:we\:know\:that\:1\:hectare\:is\:10,000 \: sq.m$

$Then,\:the\:area\:of\:the\:field\:is\: 250m\:\times \: 200m \: = \: {5000}^{2}\:or\:5\:hectare[tex]</p><p>[tex]So\:the\:total\:yield\:will\:be \: 5 \times 20 \: quintals = 100 \: quintals$

$\therefore\:The\: expected\:income\:of\:the\:farmer\:is\:100 \times ₹150$

$= ₹15000$

$Hence \: the \: expected \: income \: is \: ₹15000$

Answer 2

Answer:

₹15,000/-

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the rectangular field = 250 m × 200 m

Area = 50,000 m² = 5 hectares

Yield = 20 quintals per hectare

So, total weight of pulses = 20 × 5 = 100 quintals

Cost of one quintal = ₹150

So, cost of 100 quintals = 150 × 100 = ₹15,000/-
