Question

Q5. In a family, the consumption of wheat is 4 times that of rice. The total consumption of the
two cereals is 80 kg. Find the quantities of rice and wheat consumed in the family​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the quantity of rise be - x

let the quantity of wheat be - y

A.T.Q

y=4x. ----(1)

Given case:

x + y= 80. ----(2)

Substitute value of 'y' in equation (2)

Therefore,

x+y=80

=> x+ 4x=80

=> 5x=80

=> x=80/5

=> x=16

Therefore,

Quantity of rice 'x' consumed is 16Kg

and,

Quantity if wheat 'y' consumed is,

y=4x

y= 4*16

y=64Kg

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

according to the question,

let the wheat be 4X

the rice be X

so,

4X+X=80

5X=80

X=80/5

X=16

hence, the quantities required for the family are,

• wheat=4X

=4(16)

=54Kg

• rice=X

=16kg
