Question

Amit weighs 35 kg. His sister Kavita's weight is $\frac{3}{5}$ of Amit's weight. How much does Kavita weigh?

Answer 1

Weight of Amit = 35 kg
Weight of Kavita = $\frac{3}{5}$ of Amit's weight
= 35 kg x $\frac{3}{5}$ = $\left(35\times \frac{3}{5}\right)\mathrm{kg}=(7\times 3)\mathrm{kg}=21\mathrm{kg}$
Hence, Kavita's weight is 21 kg.
