Question

Cost of 5 kg of wheat is Rs. 91.50.
(a) What will be the cost of 8 kg of wheat?
(b) What quantity of wheat can be purchased in Rs. 183?

Please tell the full explanation

Answer 1

cost of 5kg =91.50

cost of 1kg =91.50/5

=18.3

(a ) cost of 1 kg=18.3

cost of 8kg=18.3*8

....=146.4

(b)if he bought 1 kg at 18.3 Rs.

then he bought quantity at 183 rs.=183/18.3

=10Rs.

Answer 2

If 5kg wheat cost rs.91.50 so 1kg wheat will cost 91.50/5 =18.30

therefore 1kg wheat cost Rs.18.30

so 8kg wheat will cost 18.30×8= Rs.146.40

and for Rs.183 we will get 183/18.3= 10kg of wheat.
