A box filled with paper bundles weights 36kg. If the weight of the box and paper bundles respectively are in the ratio of 3 : 22 then the weight of the papers (in grames) is = ?

130680 garms
230710 garms
331500 garms
431680 garms

Answer:- 1

Explanation:-

Solution:

	Box	:	Paper bundle
Weight	3	:	22
Let	3x	:	22x

Total weight = 3x + 22x = 25x
25x = 36kg

\begin{aligned} x = \frac{36}{25} \times 1000 \\ = 1440 garms \end{aligned}

$\eqalign{ & x = \frac{{36}}{{25}} \times 1000 \cr & \,\,\,\,\, = 1440{\text{ garms}} \cr}$ (∴ 1kg = 1000 grams)
∴ Weight of paper bundles = 22x
= 22 × 1440 garms = 31680 garms
