Question

Identify the weight of papaya if the total weight of all the fruits is 21.1 kg.

• A. 6.7 kg
• B. 5.2 kg
• C. 4.9 kg
• D. 8.2 kg

Answer 1

The correct option is A 6.7 kg

Weight of apple = 1.6 kg
Weight of watermelon = 8 $\times$ Weight of apple

So, weight of watermelon = (1.6 $\times$ 8) kg

Calculating 1.6 $\times$ 8 by standard method, we observe:


Hence, weight of watermelon = 12.8 kg

Now that we know the weight of apple and watermelon, we can find out the weight of papaya in the following way:


Therefore, the weight of papaya is 6.7 kg.
