bags of rice can he carry? Will there be rice left?

Answer 1

6 full bags of rice.

0.4 kg of rice will be left.

Explanation:

The man can carry a max of 160 kg.

1 bag of rice weighs 25 kg.

160/25 = 6.4

He can carry 6 full bags of rice.

Yes, there will be rice left.

0.4 kg of rice will be left.

Answer 2

He can carry 6 whole 2/5 of the rice and 3/5 of rice in one bag would be left.

Explanation:

Man can carry = 160 kg

1 bag of rice = 25 kg

He can carry =
`(160)/(25)`

=>
`6(2)/(5)`

He can carry 6 whole 2/5 of the rice and 3/5 of rice in one bag would be left.
