Question

A person has 200/3 kg rice He has kept one-tenth of it for his own use and distributed the rest among 6 people. How much kg of rice does each person get ​

Answer 1

• Total quantity of rice the person had = 200/3 Kgs. He kept 1/10 of total rice for himself. So the quantity of rice kept by the person for himself = 1/10 of200/3 = 20/3 Kgs. Therefore the amount of rice distributed among 6 persons = 200/ 3 - 20/3 = 180/3 = 60 Kgs.

Answer 2

Answer:

Total quantity of rice the person had = 200/3 Kgs.

He kept 1/10 of total rice for himself.

So the quantity of rice kept by the person for himself = 1/10 of200/3 = 20/3 Kgs.

Therefore the amount of rice distributed among 6 persons = 200/ 3 - 20/3 = 180/3 = 60 Kgs.

So each person got = 60/6 = 10 Kgs each.

Ans: 10 Kgs each.
