Answers
Answer:
75%
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi,
Given that Murali bag weighs 1.5.
Also given that after he packed his things, it weighed 9.5kg
=> Weight of the things he had packed = 9.5 - 1.5
= 8kg.
Given that , out of his things his books weighed 6kg.
Percentage of weight of books to the weight of things
= Weight of books/Weight of things * 100 %
= 6/8*100 %
=75%
Hence, 75% of the weight of the things in the bag were his 6 kgs of books.
Hope, it helped !
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Weigh of bag=1.5kg:
Weigh of bag after packed by the things(including books)=9.5kg;
Weigh of the things=9.5-1.5=8kg;
Out of 8kg the weigh of books is=6kg
Weigh of things other than book=8-6=2kg;
Now Suppose x% of the things in the bag with compare to 6kg(books weigh)=2
6x/100=2;
x=33.3%
