Question

there there are 200 packets having 250 decigrams of boric powder in each. if the Powder from all the packages are mixed and repack in the 40 grams packets, how many packets can be made ??​

Answer 1

so let's analyze the question...

250 decigrams = 250 ×10 ( 1 decigram =10 gram)

so 2500 grams per pack.

therefore total amount = 2500× 200= 50000

I.e. 50,000g

so if in one packet 40 grams is filled

so total packets required to fill 50000g is

50000÷40 = 1250

so total 1250 packets are required.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

ok the answer is 1250

first let's covert

1dg= 10litres

so

250 * 10 = 2500

then total amount = 2500 * 200 =

50,0000

so the answer is

50,000 litres / 40 = 1250
