The price per kilo of a 50-kilo sack of rice that costs P900.00 is found by dividing the total cost by the number of kilos, resulting in a price per kilo of P18.00. Option a is correct answer.

Explanation:

To find the price per kilo of rice, we divide the total cost of the sack by the total number of kilos in the sack. In this case, a 50-kilo sack of rice costs P900.00.

So, we calculate the price per kilo by using the following formula:

Price per Kilo = Total Cost / Number of Kilos

Price per Kilo = P900.00 / 50 kilos

Price per Kilo = P18.00

Therefore, the price per kilo of rice is P18.00.
