Answer:
30 gram cream tube had in offer
Given,
The tube contains 25% extra free cream that makes 30 gm.
To find,
The total cream in the tube (in grams).
Solution,
The total cream in the tube will be 150 grams.
We can easily solve this problem by following the given steps.
Now, according to the question,
25% of extra free cream of the total cream in the tube (initially)= 30 gm
Let's take the total cream in the tube (initially)to be x grams.
Then,
25% of x = 30 gm
25/100 × x = 30 gm
25x/100 = 30 gm
25x = 30×100 ( 100 was in the division on the left-hand side. So, it is in the multiplication on the right-hand side.)
x = 30×100/25 ( 25 was in multiply on the left-hand side. So, it is in the division on the right-hand side.)
x = 3000/25
x = 120 gm
Total cream in the tube = Cream in the tube (initially) + 25% extra free cream (30 gm)
Total cream in the tube = (120 + 30) gm
Total cream in the tube = 150 gm
Hence, the tube contains 150 gm of the cream.
