Answer:
i. weight of wastage(kg) = 179.775 kg
ii. weight of rice cultivated = 765 kg - 179. 775 kg = 585.225 kg
percentage of rice cultivated = 100 - 23.5 = 76.5%
Explanation:
A land of 1000 sq. meter is used to cultivate 765 kg of rice with wastage of 23.5%.
i. The wastage in percentage is 23.5% but the weight of the wastage in weight is 23.5% of 765 kg
weight of wastage = 23.5/100 × 765
weight of wastage = 17977.5/100
weight of wastage(kg) = 179.775 kg
ii. weight and percentage of rice cultivated.
weight of rice cultivated = 765 kg - 179. 775 kg = 585.225 kg
percentage of rice cultivated = 100 - 23.5 = 76.5%
