प्रश्न
In a family, the consumption of wheat is 4 times that of rice. The total consumption of the two cereals is 80 kg. Find the quantities of rice and wheat consumed in the family.
उत्तर
As per the given information in the question, the total consumption of the two cereals = 80 kg
Let x be the consumption of rice
Then, consumption of wheat = 4x
According to the question,
x + 4x = 80
⇒ 5x = 80
⇒ x = `80/5` = 16 kg
∴ Consumption of wheat = 4x = 4 × 16 = 64 kg
Hence, the consumption of rice and wheat is 16 kg and 64 kg, respectively.
