Question

Babar starts the day with 15 kg potatoes for sale. He sell 4 2/5 kg before 10 a.m. and 6 1/10 kg between 10 a.m and noon. What weight is left over for after noon.

Answer 1

Weight of Potato left = 4.9 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Intial weight of Potato= 15kg

Potato sold before 10 a.m = $4\frac{2}{5}$

Potato sold between 10 a.m to 12 noon = $6\frac{1}{10}$

Weight of potato sold = ( $4\frac{2}{5} + 6\frac{1}{10}$)

                                    = 10 +$\frac{3}{10}$

                                    = 10.3 kg

Weight of Potato left = 15 kg - 10.3 kg

Weight of Potato left = 4.9 kg
