Answer 1

Hint: From the above given table we must get the data to solve this question. To get the total weight of oranges and apples, we simply need to add the total sale of apples and oranges to get the result. To get the total amount raman got by selling apples we have to multiply the total number of apples sold with the price of the apples.

Complete step-by-step answer:
First we will solve the option (a)
A) In this question we have to find the total weight of apples and oranges
To find the total weight we have to add the weight of apples sold and oranges
Let put the given values first
Weight of apples sold= 2457kg
Weight of oranges= 3004kg
Total weight= \[24547 + 3004\]
$ = 5461kg$
Hence, the total weight of oranges and apples$ = 5461kg$
B) Now option b is asking for the total money Raman got by selling apples
We have to multiply the amount of apples and the total money got by selling
Raman sold 1kg apples for Rs.40
So total money Raman got by selling 2457 apples
$ = 2457.40$
$ = Rs.98280$
Raman got a total amount of Rs.98280 by selling apples.
C) In option c we have to find the total money Raman got by selling apples and oranges together
Raman got Rs.98280 by selling apples.
As we solved in option b
Now, we will calculate the total amount received by selling oranges.
To find it we will multiply the amount of oranges and total money selling by oranges
Raman sold 1kg oranges for Rs.30
So, total money Raman got by selling 3004 oranges
$ = 3004.30$
$Rs.90120$
So, total money Raman got by selling apples and oranges together is
$ = 98280 + 90120$
$Rs.188400$
Raman got a total amount of Rs.188400 by selling apples and oranges.

Note: When we multiply the total number of apples with the price of the apples, we must see that the units are proper. We should not consider the apples in kg’s and multiply it with the price of the single apple. Price must also be for the entire kg of apples.
