Question

If a man needs 500 g of rice for a day, then how many kilograms of rice are needed for 10 people for a day?

• A. 5
• B. 10
• C. 25
• D. 50

Answer 1

The correct option is A 5

Grams of rice needed for a man per day = 500 g
We know that 1000 g = 1 kg.

Thus, 500 g equals half a kilogram ($\frac{1}{2}\text{kg}$).

So, the number of kilograms of rice needed for 10 people for a day is $\frac{1}{2}\times 10=10÷2=5.$
