Answer:
x=19.88
Explanation:
Okay, let's try and create a "table" of what we know, and what we are looking for.
4.5 litres of milk cost 89.5 rupees
1 litre costs x rupees
Obviously, we are looking for x.
The method I'm about to tell you, might be familiar. Imagine that there was a giant X where the words cost and costs are above. There'd be a line connecting 4.5 litres of milk with the rupees we are looking for, and another line connecting 1 litre with the 89.5 rupees.
If we were to form an equation to solve for x, we'd put the connecting terms together, with an "=" between them, so we'd have this:
4.5*x=1*89.5
That's our equation, so let's solve for x.
x=89.5/4.5 => x=19.88 , let's say 20 rupees
