Question

If the 750 sheets of thick paper is 5/2 kg , then how many sheets of the same paper would weigh 40 grams

Answer 1

Answer:

12 Sheets

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi let's proceed to the explanation:-

Friend we know that this question is a case of direct proportion that is suppose (x is directly proportional to y) then if x increases then y will too increase and also if x would decrease then y would also decrease. According to which x1/y1 = x2/y2

here, x1 = 750 sheets, y1 = 5/2 KG and

x2 = a, y2 = 40 grams = 40/1000 Kg

A.T.C(According to condition):-

750÷5/2 = x÷40/1000

750×2/5 = x×1000/40

300 = 25x

x = 300/25

x = 12

so, 12 sheets would weight 40 grams
