Answer 2

Mohan and Sohan have two bags, if the bag hold by Mohan is one fourth times heavy than the bag hold by Sohan, if the bag hold by Sohan is 109 kg then what is the weight of Mohan's bag ?

Solution :

∵ The weight of Sohan's bag = 109 kg,

According to the question,

`\text{The weight of Mohan's bag} =\frac{\text{Weight of Sohan's bag}}{4}`

`=(109)/(4)`

`=27(1)/(4)\text{ kg}`
