Answer:
Consumption of rice = 16 kgs.
Consumption of wheat = 64kgs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Total consumption of cereals = 80kgs.
Let the consumption of rice = x kgs.
According to the question
Consumption of wheat will be 4x kgs.
Thus, the equation so formed will be
(x+4x) kgs. = 80kgs.
5x kgs. = 80 kgs.
x kgs. = 80/5
= 16kgs.
Consumption of rice = x kgs. = 16kgs
Consumption of wheat = 4x kgs. = 64kgs.
