4. The price of a sofa set is ₹2540.80. Find the total cost of 195 such sets.

5. The weight of a box is 146 kg 68 g. Find the weight of 365 such boxes.

Answer :

To solve both parts of this question, we will use basic arithmetic operations: multiplication and unit conversion.

  1. Finding the total cost of 195 sofa sets:
    The price of one sofa set is [tex]₹2540.80.[/tex] To find the total cost of 195 such sets, we need to multiply the price of one set by the number of sets:
    [tex]\text{Total Cost} = ₹2540.80 \times 195[/tex]
    Performing the multiplication:
    [tex]\text{Total Cost} = ₹495,456[/tex]
    Therefore, the total cost of 195 sofa sets is [tex]₹495,456.[/tex]

  2. Finding the weight of 365 boxes:
    The weight of one box is given as [tex]146 \text{ kg} 68 \text{ g}.[/tex] First, we need to convert the weight into a single unit to ensure consistency. Converting the grams into kilograms by noting that 1 kg = 1000 g:
    [tex]68 \text{ g} = 0.068 \text{ kg}[/tex]
    So, the total weight of one box in kilograms is:
    [tex]146.068 \text{ kg}[/tex]
    To find the total weight of 365 such boxes, we multiply the weight of one box by the number of boxes:
    [tex]\text{Total Weight} = 146.068 \text{ kg} \times 365[/tex]
    Performing the multiplication:
    [tex]\text{Total Weight} = 53,248.82 \text{ kg}[/tex]
    Therefore, the total weight of 365 boxes is [tex]53,248.82 \text{ kg}.[/tex]

These calculations provide the total cost and total weight for the given number of sofa sets and boxes, respectively.
