Solution
The correct option is A 500 kg
Weight of one sack of rice = 50 kg
Number of sacks of rice = 5
Weight of 5 sacks of rice = 50 kg × 5 = 250 kg
Weight of one sack of wheat = 25 kg
Number of sacks of wheat = 10
Weight of 10 sacks of wheat = 25 kg × 10 = 250 kg
Therefore, the total weight of the items on the cart is the sum of these weights, which is 250 kg + 250 kg = 500 kg.
Weight of one sack of rice = 50 kg
Number of sacks of rice = 5
Weight of 5 sacks of rice = 50 kg × 5 = 250 kg
Weight of one sack of wheat = 25 kg
Number of sacks of wheat = 10
Weight of 10 sacks of wheat = 25 kg × 10 = 250 kg
Therefore, the total weight of the items on the cart is the sum of these weights, which is 250 kg + 250 kg = 500 kg.
