उत्तर
Weight of each bag of rice = 5.250 kg
Number of bags of rice bought = 18
∴ Weight of rice bought altogether = Weight of each bag of rice × Number of bags of rice bought
= 5.250 kg × 18
= `525/100xx18/1`
= `(525xx18)/(100xx1)`
= `9450/100`
= 94.5 kg
Rate of rice = ₹ 42/kg
∴ Total amount paid for the rice = Weight of rice bought altogether × Rate of rice
= 94.5 kg × ₹ 42/kg
= `945/10 xx 42/1`
= `(945 xx 42)/(10xx1)`
= `39690/10`
= ₹ 3,969
Thus, Virendra bought 94.5 kg of rice altogether and the total amount paid by him is ₹ 3,969.
