Question

if the mass of 95 sheets of paper is 280gm , how many sheets will weigh 7.2kg?​

Answer 1

Given :-

• Mass of 95 sheets of paper = 280 gm

To find :-

• Number of sheets will be in 7.2 kg

At first we have to convert Mass into kg either in gram.

So :-

$\\ \mathtt{ \implies{In \: \: Kilogram = \frac{280}{1000} }}$

$\large\color{red} \mathtt{ \implies{In \: \: Kilogram = 0.28 \: kg }}$

So, we have :-

95 sheets = 0.28 kg

? = 7.2 kg

Let x be the number of sheets. So, number of sheets will be ,

$\\{{\mathtt{\implies { \bold {x \times 0.28 = 95 \times 7.2 }}}}}$

$\\{{\mathtt{\implies x = \bold{\frac{7.2 \times 95}{0.28} }}}}$

$\\ {\mathtt{ \implies \frac{684}{0.28} }}$

$\\ {\mathtt{ \implies \frac{684}{ \frac{28}{100} } }}$

$\\ {\mathtt{ \implies \frac{684 \times 100}{28} }}$

$\\ {\mathtt{ \implies \frac{68400}{28} }}$

$\large{ \color{blue}{ \boxed{{\mathtt{ \implies 2,442.86 \: \: sheets}}}}}$

Number of sheets are 2,442.86.
