Question

There are 28 laddoos in 1 kg. How many laddoos will be there in 12 kg? If 16 laddoos can be packed in 1 box, how many boxes are needed to pack all these laddoos?

Answer 1

Number of laddoos in 1 kg = 28
∴ Number of laddoos in 12 kg = 12 × 28
= 336
Working:



Thus, there are 336 laddoos in 12 kg.

Number of boxes needed to pack 16 laddoos = 1
∴ Number of boxes needed to pack 336 laddoos = 336 ÷ 16
= 21

Working:



Thus, 21 boxes are needed to pack all the laddoos.
