Question 1
Asad bought $50$ packets of biscuits for the price of $Rs.\ 500$; whereas Anum bought $25$ packets of chips for the price of $Rs.\ 1000$. While comparing the prices of packets of biscuits and packets of chips, which of the following statements is correct?
  • Price of 4 packets of biscuits is equal to the price of 1 packet of chips✔️
  • Price of 1 packet of biscuits is equal to the price of 4 packets of chips
  • Price of 2 packets of biscuits is equal to the price of 1 packet of chips
  • Price of 1 packet of biscuits is equal to the price of 2 packets of chips
Correct Answer Explanation
Price per biscuit packet $= \dfrac{500}{50} = Rs.\ 10$. Price per chips packet $= \dfrac{1000}{25} = Rs.\ 40$. Ratio: $\dfrac{\text{chips}}{\text{biscuits}} = \dfrac{40}{10} = 4$. So $4$ packets of biscuits $= 4 \times 10 = Rs.\ 40 = 1$ packet of chips. Statement A is correct.
