Answer 2

Answer:

The ratio of price of coffee to the price of tea is 6:7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Coffee cost rupees 24 per 100 gram and tea cost rupees 80 per kg.

To find : The ratio of the price of coffee to that of tea ?

Solution :

We know that,

1 kilogram(kg) = 1000 gram(gm)

Cost of coffee = Rs 24 per 100 gram

⇒ Cost of 100 gram coffee is Rs 24

⇒ Cost of 1 gram coffee = Rs $\frac{24}{100}$

⇒ Cost of 1000 gram coffee = Rs  $\frac{24\times 1000}{100}$

$\textbf{Cost of coffee = Rs 240/kg}$

$\textbf{Cost of tea = Rs 280/kg}$

Ratio of price of coffee to the ratio of price of tea is

$R=\frac{\text{Price of coffee}}{\text{Price of tea}}$

$R=\frac{240}{280}$

$R=\frac{12}{14}$

$R=\frac{6}{7}$

So, The ratio of price of coffee to the price of tea is 6:7.
