Question

A wedding cake weighed 8 kg. If 25th of its weight was flour, 516th was sugar, 14th was cream and the rest were nuts, find the weight of nuts.​

Answer 1

Answer:

300g

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 the of 8 kg is not but

2/5*8 which is 16/5 basically

3.2 kg

5/16 of 8 kg is flour

then it will be 5/16*8

nothing but 5/2

2.5 kg

1/4 the is cream

then it will be

1/4*8

2 kg

now add up everything

we will get 7.7 kg

the nuts will be 8-7.7

which is 300 grams

Answer 2

Answer:

flour = 2/5*8 kg

= 3.2 kg

sugar = 5/16 *8 kg

= 2.5 kg

cream = 1/4*8kg

= 2 kg

therefore total except nuts = 3.2 +2.5+2 kg

= 7.7 kg

therefore nuts = 8 - 7.7 kg

= 0.3 kg

or 300 g...
