Answer:
Rice weighing 17.1 kg was sold during the day.
Explanation:
The weight of sacks of rice = w = 26.3 kg
Total quantity in the store at the end of the day = s = 35.5 kg
Total weight of rice = 2(w) = 2(26.3) = 52.6 kg
Now, the total quantity sold is the total quantity at the start minus the quantity at the end of the day so,
Quantity sold = Total weight of rice - Quantity in the store at the end of the day
Quantity sold = 52.6 - 35.5
quantity sold = 17.1 kg
