(b) How much milk was there in the bottle initially?
(c) If 1 l of milk costs ₹ 40, how much will 3 l milk cost?

Question 53 Marks
In a kingdom, the king donates wheat grains equal to 10 times his weight on his birthday.
Image
(a) If he donates 800 kg of wheat grain this birthday, what is his current weight?
(b) If he had donated 780 kg of wheat grain on his last birthday, what was his weight last year?
(c) How much weight did he gain in a year until this birthday?
Answer
(a) The king donates 800 kg of wheat grains on his birthday. It means 10 times the weight of the king this birthday is 800 kg. Therefore, 10 x king’s weight = 800 kg
So, king’s weight = $\frac{800}{10} kg$
= 80 kg
(b) The king donated 780 kg of wheat grains on his last birthday. It means 10 times the king’s weight last year = 780 kg.
So king’s weight last year = $\frac{780}{10} kg$
= 80 kg
(c) Weight gain = Weight of the king on this birthday – Weight of the king on last birthday
= 80 kg – 78 kg
= 2 kg
