Question
If `1/4` of a ragi adai weighs 120 grams, what will be the weight of `2/3` of the same ragi adai?
Advertisements
Solution
Let the weight of 1 ragi adai = x grams
Given `1/4` of x = 120 gm
`1/4 xx x` = 120
x = 120 × 4
x = 480 gm
∴ `2/3` of the adai = `2/3 xx 480 "gm"`
= 2 × 160 gm
= 320 gm
`2/3` of the weight of adai = 320 gm
