Answer 2

Answer:

Option (a) 1.5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

☆Let the weight of the cake be 'x' g.

$\tt \: Cake \: eaten \: = \dfrac{3}{5} x$

$\tt \:  So, \: remaining \: cake \: = x - \dfrac{3x}{5} = \dfrac{2x}{5}$

$\tt \:  According \: to \: statement,$

$\tt \:  \dfrac{2x}{5} = 600$

$\tt\implies \:x = 1500 \: gm$

$\tt\implies \:x = \dfrac{1500}{1000} \: kg$

$\tt\implies \:x = 1.5 \: kg$
