Question

A shopkeeper buys two bags of tea, one containing 3(3/4)kg and other containing 2(1/4)kg. He mixed the Tea together and packed it in 40 small packets. How much tea is contained in each small packet?

options

a) 150g
b)15g
c) 150kg​

Answer 1

3(3/4) kg = 15/4 kg

2(1/4) kg = 9/4 kg

so, when both are mixed.

15/4 + 9/4

⇒ 24/4

⇒ 6 kg

When it is packed into 40 packets.

Weight of each packet

⇒ 6kg/40

⇒ 6000g/40

⇒ 150 g

Weight of Each Packet = 150g
