Question

Srikant bought 7.5kg of laddoo and 4.5kg of barfi. He made small packets to distribute these sweet.
Calculate the number of packets he will have if each packet contains.
(a) 300 g
(b) 400 g.​

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 40

b) 30

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 1 k.g. = 1000 gram

hence 7.5 k.g. = 7500 gram

300 g packet required for laddoo is = 7500 /300

= 25

also 4.5 kg = 4500 gram

300 g packet required for barfi = 4500 / 300

= 15

total 300 g packet required is = 25+15 = 40

b) similarly

400 g packet required for laddoo = 7500/400

= 18.75

and 400 g packet required for barfi = 4500/400

= 11.25

total 400 g packet required = 18.75 + 11.25 = 30
