Then,

Cost of 3kg sugar = ₹(3×25)

Answer 2

The 3kg sugar will cost  75 rupees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

• 5 kg Sugar costs 125 rupees.

To be found: How many rupees it will cost for 3 kg sugar.

Formula used: Find the price for 1 Kg and multiply it with 3.

Solution:

Since, we know that the price of 5 Kg sugar is 125 rupees.

Let 1 kg of sugar be x.

So, we can form the equation as:

$5x=125\\x=\frac{125}5\\\therefore x=25$

So, if the value of x is 25 then it is clear that 1 Kg of sugar costs 25 rupees.

Now, we have to find the price for 3 kg of sugar which means we have to find the value of 3x.

$3x=3\times25\\\therefore 3x=75$

Therefore, 3 kg of sugar will cost 75 rupees.
