Answer 1

Given

Five buckets of paint cost Rs.1200, each of these contain 1.2 L of paint.

Solution

Cost of 1 bucket of paint when each of these contain 1.2 L of paint = 1200/5 = Rs. 240

Cost of 1 bucket of paint when each of these contain 1 L of paint = 240/1.2 = 2400/12 = Rs. 200

Cost of 1 bucket of paint when each of these contain 1.5 L of paint = 200 × 1.5 = Rs. 300

∴ Cost of 7 buckets of paint when each of these contain 1.5 L of paint = 300 × 7 = Rs. 2100

Hence, cost of 7 buckets, each containing 1.5 L of paint is Rs. 2100.
