A person has200/3 kg of rice.He has kept one tenth of it for his own use,and distributed the rest among 6 people.How much kg of rice did each person got???
Solution:
Total quantity of rice the person had = 200/3 Kgs.
He kept 1/10 of total rice for himself.
So the quantity of rice kept by the person for himself = 1/10 of200/3 = 20/3 Kgs.
Therefore the amount of rice distributed among 6 persons = 200/ 3 - 20/3 = 180/3 = 60 Kgs.
So each person got = 60/6 = 10 Kgs each.
Ans: 10 Kgs each.
