Question 1: Mental Math: Bhajan Buys Bricks Bhajan went to buy bricks. The price was given for one thousand bricks. The prices were also different for different types of bricks.
Old bricks – Rs 1200 for one thousand bricks
New bricks from Intapur – Rs 1800 for one thousand bricks
New bricks from Brickabad – Rs 2000 for one thousand bricks
Bhajan decided to buy the new bricks from Brickabad. He bought three thousand bricks. How much did he pay? _ _ _
• Guess what he will pay if he buys 500 old bricks.
Answer:
Bhajan bought new bricks from Brickabad. Cost of one new brick from Brickabad = Rs 2000
÷1000 = Rs 2 Cost of 3000 new bricks bought from Brickabad = Rs 2
× 3000 = Rs 6000
• Bhajan bought 500 old bricks and the cost of 1000 old bricks = Rs 1200 We have to find the cost of 500 old bricks, which is half of 1000 bricks. Cost of 500 old bricks = Rs 1200
÷ 2 = Rs 600 Thus, the cost of 500 old bricks = Rs 600
Step-by-step explanation:
price of 1000 bricks =1000/-
price of 1 brick = 1000/1000=1
therefore,price of 500 bricks = 1×500=500
