Answer 2

Total cost of 4 kg of apples , 3 kg of rice and 5 kg of flour $=\textrm{Rs} 877.4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given cost of each kg of flour is Rs 20.50

given cost of 6 kg of flour = cost of 2 kg of rice

so cost of 6 kg of flour is $\textrm{Rs} 20.50 \times 6= \textrm{Rs} 123$

so now cost of 2 kg of rice = Rs 123

cost of 24 kg of rice =$\textrm{cost of 2 kg of rice } \times 12= \textrm{Rs} 123 \times 12=\textrm{Rs} 1476$

Given cost of 10 kg of apples = cost of 24 kg of rice

so now cost of 10 kg of apples = $\textrm{Rs} 1476$

cost of 1 kg of apple $=\frac{1476}{10} =\textrm{Rs} 147.6$

cost of 4 kg of apples $\textrm{Rs } 147.6 \times 4=\textrm{Rs}590.4$

cost of 24 kg of rice $=\textrm{Rs} 1476$

cost of 1 kg of rice $=\frac{1476}{24} =\textrm{Rs} 61.5$

so cost of 3 kg of rice $=\textrm{Rs} 61.5 \times 3=\textrm{Rs} 184.5$

cost of 1 kg of flour $=\textrm{Rs} 20.50$

cost of 5 kg of flour $=\textrm{Rs} 20.50 \times 5=\textrm{Rs} 102.5$

So Now total cost of 4 kg of apples , 3 kg of rice and 5 kg of flour

$=\textrm{Rs} 590.4+\textrm{Rs} 184.5+\textrm{Rs} 102.5$

$=\textrm{Rs} 877.4$

So Now total cost of 4 kg of apples , 3 kg of rice and 5 kg of flour

$=\textrm{Rs} 877.4$
