Answer 2

Answer:

The number of kilograms of rice needed per day = 186kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

Rice allowed per day for each child = 150grams

Number of children in the scheme= 1240

To find,

How many kilograms of rice is needed per day

Recall the concept

1kg = 1000grams

Solution

Rice required per day = Total number of students in the scheme × rice required per day per student

= 1240×150

= 1,86,000grams

Since, 1000grams = 1 kilogram

1 gram = $\frac{1}{1000}$ kilogram

1,86,000grams =  1,86,000× $\frac{1}{1000}$

= 186kilograms

∴The number of kilograms of rice needed per day = 186kilograms
