    Question

    A vendor mixed 6.3 kg of peanuts, 2100 g of dates, 3.6 kg of cashews and packed the mixture equally into two and half dozen packets. The weight (in grams) of each packet is

    A.

    400

    B.

    200

    C.

    500

    D.

    300

    Correct option is A

    Given
    Weight of peanuts = 6.3 kg = 6300 g
    Weight of dates = 2100 g
    Weight of cashews = 3.6 kg = 3600 g
    Total packets = 2.5 dozen

    Formula Used
    1 kg = 1000 g
    1 dozen = 12 items
    Weight per packet  =Total weightTotal packets= \frac{\text{Total weight}}{\text{Total packets}}​​

    Solution
    Total weight = 6300 + 2100 + 3600 = 12000 g

    Total packets = 2.5 × 12 = 30 packets

    Weight of each packet = 1200030 \frac{12000}{30}​​

    Weight of each packet = 400 g

    So the correct answer is (a)
