Question

The loaves weigh 750g and the rolls 150g. If the total number of loaves and rolls is 16 and total weight is 6kg. How many loaves are there and how many rolls

Answer 1

Answer:

6 loaves and 10 rolls

Step-by-step explanation:

Let no of loaves be x

Let no of rolls be y

So ATQ

750x + 150y = 6000 g

150(5x+1y) = 6000

5x +y = 40 - (1)

Now in second case

x + y= 16

y= 16-x -(2)

Put equation (2) in (1)

5x+16-x=40

4x=24

x=6

Now, x+y=16

6+y=16

y=10
