Question

There are 5400 kg food grains in a shop. If the ratio of wheat and rice is 15:12, find
the total quantity of rice.​

Answer 1

Answer:

5400×15/27=3000kg wheat

5400-3000=2400kg rice

Answer 2

Wheat = 15x

Rice = 12x

Then, 15x + 12x = 5400

27x = 5400

x =5400/27

x = 200

Wheat = 15 × 200 = 3000 kg.

Rice = 12 × 200 = 2400 kg.
