Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Amount of rice left in the bag = 239/7 Kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Weight of the first bag = 461/6 Kg
Weight of the second bag = 128/3 Kg
\begin{gathered}\implies \text{Total weight = }\frac{461}{6}+\frac{128}{3}\\\\\implies \text{Total weight = }\frac{461+128\times 2}{6}\\\\\implies \text{Total weight = }\frac{717}{6}\end{gathered}
⟹Total weight =
6
461
+
3
128
⟹Total weight =
6
461+128×2
⟹Total weight =
6
717
Given that the 5/7 of the total weight, the rice has been sold
⇒ Amount of rice sold = 5/7 × 717/6
= 1195/14
So, Amount of rice left in the bag = 239/2 - 1195/14
= 239/7 Kg
Answer:
The weight of the remaining rice is 4989/42kg
