Q.10 Solve the following word problem:
(08)
1. I bought 2/1/2 kg potatoes,1/4 kg tomatoes and 1/1/4
kg peas. How much total weight did I carry
home?​

Answer 1

Radha bought

Potatoes =2 kg 250 g

Cabbage =1 kg 300 g

Peas =1 kg 450 g

Onions =2 kg 670 g

Ginger =275 g

Total quantity =7 kg 945 g

Reshma bought

Onions =3 kg 10 g

Tomatoes =1 kg

Grapes =560 g

Papaya =1 kg 780g

Apple =1 kg 655 g

Total quantity =8 kg 5 g

Difference in Reshma's quantity of vegetable and Radha's quantity of vegetable =8.005−7.945=0.060 kg=60 gm

Hence Reshma bought more in terms of quantity by 60 gm.
