Question

Raghu has 1 kg of grapes. He gave $\frac{3}{4}$ kg of grapes to each of his 2 brothers . What is the weight of grapes left with Raghu?

• A. 250 g
• B. 950 g
• C. 500 g
• D. 750 g

Answer 1

The correct option is C 500 g

1kg = 1000g, therefore 2kg = 2000 g
$\frac{3}{4}$ kg = 3 times ( 1000 ÷ 4)
= 3 times 250 g
= 750 g
So, Raghu gives 750 g to each of his brothers
So he is left with 2000 g - (2 times 750 g)
= 2000 g - 1500 g
= 500 g
