Dinu starts his spice business. He buys 10 kg turmeric powder, 8 kg red chilli powder and 15 kg coriander powder. He makes small packets of 20 g of each of the spices. How many small packets of spices he prepares to sell? Correct Answer 1650

Given:

Turmeric powder = 10 kg

Red chilli powder = 8 kg

Coriander powder = 15 kg

He makes small packets which quantity = 20 g

Concept used:

First, convert all quantities from kilogram to gram and calculate the packet quantity for every powder.

Calculation:

Turmeric powder = 10 kg = 10 × 1000 g = 10000 g

Red chilli powder = 8 kg = 8 × 1000 g = 8000 g

Coriander powder = 15 kg = 15 × 1000 g = 15000 g

According to the question, Dinu makes small packets of 20 g for all powder.

Total packets made of turmeric powder = 10000/20 = 500

Total packets made of red chilli powder = 8000/20 = 400

Total packets made of coriander powder = 15000/20 = 750

Then total packets will be = (500 + 400 + 750) = 1650

∴​ He prepares to sell total of 1650 packets.
