Question

If the cost of 10 kg wheat is rupees 220 find the cost of 8 kg of wheat​

Answer 1

Answer: 176 rupees

Explanation:

First, take the ratio:

`(220)/(10) ={22}`

This is saying 1 single kilogram of wheat costs 22 rupees. You can simply multiply this ratio by the amount of kilograms of wheat you want. Mathematically, this is saying:

`22=(x)/(8)`

Multiply both sides by 8 to get:

`x=176`

Answer 2

Explanation:

The cost of 10 kg wheet = Rs.220

The cost of 1 kg wheet = Rs.220 ÷ 10

= Rs.22

Now,

The cost of 8 kg wheet = Rs.22 × 8

= Rs.176
