Ans with solutions..

Answer 1

a). Concept

The total number of packed litchis will be the product of the number of boxes and the number of litchis contained in one box.

Given

Total number of boxes = 2,125

Number of litchis in one box = 144

Find

We need to calculate the total number of litchis packed from the farm.

Solution

Total number of litchis = Total number of boxes * Number of litchis in one box

Total number of litchis = 2,125 * 144 = 306,000

Hence the total number of litchis are 306,000.

b). Concept

The number required boxes to pack 12,70,224 litchis will be equal to the ratio of the total number litchis by number of litchis in one box.

Given

Total number of litchis = 12,70,224

Number of litches in one box = 144

Find

We need to calculate the number of boxes.

Solution

Number of boxes = Total number of litchis / Number of litches in one box

Number of boxes = 12,70,224 / 144

Number of boxes = 8821

Hence the number of boxes required is 8821.
