Question

Sunitha bought a 10kg box of grapes front the market .she gave 3 1/4 of grapes to her friend Poornima and 2 1/2 kg to Anitha . How many kg of grapes are left with her?

Answer 1

Answer:

Sunita has =10kg of grapes

Then

For poornima she gave =3 1/4

13/4 kg

For anitha she gave =2 1/2

5/2 kg

Grapes left with her = sunitha bought-for poornima +for anitha

=10-(13/4+5/2)

=10-(23/4)

=10-23/4

=40-23/4

=17/4 kg (or) 4 1/4kg

Therefore the grapes left with her is 17/4kg (or) 4 1/4kg

Answer 2

Answer:

The grapes left with Sunitha =  $4\frac{1}{4}$kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Sunita bought 10Kg.

She gave $3\frac{1}{4}$ kg of grapes to Poornima and $2\frac{1}{2}$ kg to Anita

To find,

The grapes left with her

Solution

Let the grapes left with Sunitha be 'x'

The total grapes Sunitha bought = 10kg

Grapes given to Poornima =  $3\frac{1}{4}$ Kg

Grapes given to Anita =  $2\frac{1}{2}$ kg

Total grapes given =  $3\frac{1}{4}$  +  $2\frac{1}{2}$

=$\frac{13}{4} +\frac{5}{2}$

=$\frac{13+10}{4}$

= $\frac{23}{4}$

We have,

Total grapes bought =  Total grapes given to Poornima and Anita + grapes left with Sunitha

10 =   $\frac{23}{4}$ + x

x = 10 -  $\frac{23}{4}$

x = $\frac{40 - 23}{4}$

x = $\frac{17}{4}$

x =  $4\frac{1}{4}$kg

∴ The grapes left with Sunitha =  $4\frac{1}{4}$kg
