The weight of the parcel was 16 kg

Given :

• In city a Couriering a parcel costs (1) ₹ 80 per kg and (2) a fixed pick-up service charge of ₹ 10.

• Ramesh paid 1290 rupees

To find :

The weight of the parcel was

• 10.75 kg

• 15 kg

• 16 kg

• 12.5 kg

Solution :

Step 1 of 2 :

Form the equation

Let the weight of the Parcel = x kg

Here it is given that in city a Couriering a parcel costs ₹ 80 per kg and a fixed pick-up service charge of ₹ 10

So total cost of the parcel

= ₹ ( 80x + 10 )

By the given condition

$\displaystyle \sf{80x + 10 = 1290 }$

Step 2 of 2 :

Find the weight of the parcel

$\displaystyle \sf{80x + 10 = 1290 }$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies 80x = 1290 - 10}$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies 80x = 1280}$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies x = \frac{1280}{80} }$

$\displaystyle \sf{ \implies x = 16}$

So the weight of the parcel was 16 kg

Hence the correct option is 16 kg
