Question
The cost of some grocery items is given in the following table. Find the total cost of each item.
Answer

Rice: Cost of 12 kg = 12 × ₹ 60 = ₹ 720
Cost of lkg (1,000 g) = ₹ 60
Cost of 500 g = ₹ 30
Therefore, cost of 12 kg 500 g = ₹ 720 + ₹ 30
= ₹ 750
Flour: Cost of 7 kg = 7 × ₹ 40 = ₹ 280
Cost of 1 kg (250 g + 250 g + 250 g + 250 g)
= ₹ 40 (10 + 10 + 10 + 10)
Cost of 250 g = ₹ 10
Therefore, cost of 7 kg 250 g = ₹ 280 + ₹ 10
= ₹ 290
Sugar: Cost of 5 kg = 5 × ₹ 45 = ₹ 225
Chana dal: Cost of 3 kg = 3 × ₹ 70 = ₹ 210
Cost of 1 kg (1000 g) = ₹ 70
Cost of 100 g = ₹ 7
Cost of 600 g = 6 × ₹ 7 = ₹ 42
Therefore, cost of 3 kg 600 g = ₹ 210 + ₹ 42
= ₹ 252
Besan: Cost of 4 kg = 4 × ₹ 60 = ₹ 240
Jaggery: Cost of 1 kg (1000 g) = ₹ 50
Cost of 100 g = ₹ 5
Cost of 400 g = 4 ×₹ 5 = ₹ 20
Cost of 1 kg 400 g = ₹ 50 + ₹ 20 = ₹ 70
Hence, the complete table is:
