60% of the pie was sprinkled with crushed sugar and 400 gm of the pie which is 20% of the pie is sprinkled with dry fruits. If 1/4 of pie sprinkled with sugar is removed then calculate how much amount of pie sprinkled with sugar is left in grams. Correct Answer 900 gm

Given:

20% of pie = 400 gms

60% of pie = Crushed sugar

Calculations:

Calculating the total amount of pie

⇒ 20% of pie = 400 gms

⇒ Total amount = 400 × 100/20

⇒ Total amount = 2000 gm

Now, 60% of pie sprinkled with crushed sugar

⇒ 60% of pie = (60/100) × 2000

⇒ Pie with sugar = 1200 gm

Also, (1/4)th of pie from 60% is removed

⇒ Pie left = (3/4) × 1200

⇒ Pie left = 900 gm

∴ 900 gm of pie is left from the one that is sprinkled with sugar
