Question

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

Sum

Solution

Number of laddoos in 1 kg = 28

Hence, number of laddoos in 12 kg = 28 × 12

   12
x 28
  96 (12 x 8)
240 (12 x 20)
336

Hence, there will be 336 laddoos in 12 kg.

Number of laddoos in 1 box =16

Total number of laddoos = 336

Hence, number of boxes needed for 336 laddoos = 336 ÷ 16

`16 ")" overline 336 "(" 21` 
    − 32
       16
    − 16
         0     

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