Question

Sam buys half kg of salt. If the cost of 1 kg salt is ₹24, how much does Sam need to pay to the shopkeeper?

• A. 12

Answer 1

The correct option is A 12
Cost of 1 kg salt = ₹24
$\frac{1}{2}$ kg means half kg ($\frac{1}{2}$ is a fractional form representation for half)
So, the amount of money that Sam needs to pay to the shopkeeper
= 24 $÷$ 2
= ₹12
