Question

If the cost of 1 kg apple is ₹ 40, what will be the cost of 1$\frac{1}{4}$ kg apples (in ₹)?

• A. 50

Answer 1

The correct option is A 50
Cost of 1 kg apple
= ₹ 40.

1$\frac{1}{4}$ = 1 and a quarter

So 1$\frac{1}{4}$ kg = 1 kg and a quarter kg.

So the cost of 1$\frac{1}{4}$ kg apples
= cost of 1 kg apple + cost of a quarter kg apple
= ₹ 40 + $\frac{1}{4}$ $times$ ₹ 40
= ₹ 40 + ₹ 10
= ₹ 50
