Answer:

​7.14*10^-4rand

Explanation:

If the cost of cereal is 35rand for 1 kg, this can be expressed as;

35 and = 1kg

To get the cost of 25grams, we can write

25g = x

0.025 kg = x

Divide both expressions

35/0.025 = 1/x

35x = 0.025

x = 0.025/35

x = ​7.14*10^-4rand

Hence the cost of 25g is ​7.14*10^-4rand
