Answer:
Rs.3.45 is the cost of the quantity of rice that each person got.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Total weight of rice which was distributed=43.7 kg
No. of persons= 152
Weight of rice 1 person got= total weight of rice /no. of persons
= 43.7/152=0.2875 kg.
Price of 1 kg. rice = Rs.12
Price of 0.2875 kg of rice = price of 1 kg. rice ×total weight
= 12×0.2875=Rs.3.45
