Mukesh weight 56.7 kg. If he reduces his weight in the ratio 7:6. New weight of Mukesh is....
Read Solution (Total 6)
-
- Given ratio is 7:6;
let weight before and after reduction be 7x and 6x respectively.
A/Q
7x=56.7
=> x=56.7/7
=> x= 8.1
Reduced weight= 6x= 6*8.1= 48.6;
hence reduced weight= 48.6 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(20) No(0)
- 56.7/7=8.1*6=48.6kg
- 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)
- Given ratio 7:6 &
consider reduced weight is x
thats why
7/6=56.7/x
x*7=56.7*6
x=(56.7*6)/7
x=48.6 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- let the new weight be x
reduced weight=7x/6
so, 56.7-7x/6=x
so 8x=6*56.7
x=42.525 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- 1-7/6=1/6*56.7=9.7
so the rt nw weight 56.7-9.7=47kg - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Given ratio : - 7:6(before and AFTER)
so weight reduced in comparison to before = 1/7.(reduce = 7-6 = 1) or 14.28% reduced
so the remaining weight will be 85.72% or 6/7
so ans =56.7*6/7 = 48.6 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
