Answer 1

Solution: Total rice require for $4$ people in preparation of vegetable pulao $=300$gm

Amount of rice require for one people = Total rice in gm/ No. of people

Amount of rice require for one people = $\frac{300}{4}$

Amount of rice require for one people = $75$ gm

Now, amount of rice for preparing same pulao for $7$ people = $7\times$ Amount of rice require for one people

Amount of rice for $7$ people = $7\times 75$ gm = $525$ gm
