Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$1 \frac{1}{2} kg \: = 1500g \\ \\ 1500g \: sugar \: = 25 \: rs \: \\ 1g \: sugar = \frac{25}{1500} \: rs \\ 500 \: g \: = 500 \times \frac{25}{1500 } \: rs \\ = 8.33 \: rs \\ \\ Hope \: it \: will \: help \: you \:$

Answer 2

Answer:

8.33rs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

1 1/2 kg sugar is of 25rs

To find Rs for 500gram

Solution

As we know that

1 kg is equal to 1000gram hence

$1 \frac{1}{2} kg = 1500gram$

To find cost of per gram we will take

$cost \: of \: each \: gram = \frac{25}{1500}$

hence to find cost for 500gram

$cost \: for \: 500gram = 500 \times \frac{25}{1500}$

as 1500 is divisible by 500 then

$= \frac{25}{3}$

by solving we get

$8.33$

hence cost of 500g is 8.33rs.
