Ramesh has two boxes. One box is half filled with chocolates. Every box when completely filled with chocolates contain 1.32kg of chocolates. Find the weight of remaining chocolates to fill in two boxes?
Answers
Each box full capacity is 1.32kg of chocolates..
when half of box is filled it contains 1.32/2=0.65kg of chocolate..
hence
first box
already half filled i.e, 0.65kg
remaining space for another 0.65kg
second box
can accommodate 1.32kg of chocolates
hence in total 0.65+1.32=1.97kg is weight of remaining chocolates that can be filled in 2 boxes
The Weight Of The Remaining Chocolate To Fill In Two Boxes Is 1.98 Kg
GIVEN
The capacity of each box = 1.32kg of chocolates
Amount of chocolate in box 1 = half of the capacity of the box.
TO FIND
Weight of remaining chocolates to fill.
SOLUTION
We can simply solve the above problem as follows-
It is given,
Total number of boxes = 2
The total capacity of each box = 1.32 kg of chocolates.
The total weight of chocolate in both boxes can have = 1.32 + 1.32 = 2.64kg of chocolates.
It is given,
That 1 box is half filled.
So,
Amount of chocolate in one box = 1.32/2 = 0.66kg
Let the amount of remaining chocolate to be filled be, x.
So,
Chocolate in Half filled box + remaining weight of chocolate = total weight of chocolate in 2 boxes.
Putting the values in the above formula, we get.
0.66 + x = 2.64
x = 2.64-0.66
x = 1.98
Hence, the weight of the remaining chocolate to fill in two boxes is 1.98 kg
