For 6 days, each person will need
a) Rice and flour – ______ g
Rice and flour – 1200 g
Flour required per person per day = 100 g
Total rice and flour required for each person for a single day = 200 g
Thus, for 6 days, rice and flour required per person = 200 g × 6 = 1200 g
b) Pulses – ______ g
Pulses – 400 g
Pulses required per person per day =1/3 rd the weight of rice and flour
Pulses required per person for days = 1200 g × 1/3 =400 g
c) Dried onions – ______ g
Dried onions – 60 g
Dried onions required per person per day = 10 g
For 6 days, dried onions required per person = 6 × 10 g = 60 g
2. How much of fresh tomatoes should be dried for 6 days for 10 people?
Show solutionHide solution
For 1 g dried tomato, we need 10g fresh tomatoes.
Hence, for 10 g dried tomatoes, we need 10 × 10 g = 100 g fresh tomatoes.
Thus, for 6 days, we need to dry 6 × 100 g = 600 g of fresh tomatoes.
