Q51

Radha bought 9 bags of rice each weighing 9 kg 995 g. Total weight of rice in the bags is :

  1. (1) 89.595 kg
  2. (2) 89.795 kg
  3. (3) 89.955 kgCorrect answer
  4. (4) 89.985 kg

Solution.

CBSE answer: (3)

Answer: (3) 89.955 kg

  1. Convert to one unit first: 1 kg = 1000 g, so 9 kg 995 g =9.995= 9.995 kg.
  2. 9×9.995=89.9559 \times 9.995 = 89.955 kg.
  3. Second way: 9×10=909 \times 10 = 90 kg, and each bag is 5 g short, so 90−0.045=89.95590 - 0.045 = 89.955 kg.

Trap: (1) 89.595 kg swaps the digits after the decimal.
