if 11.25 m of a uniform steel rod weighs 42.75 kg . what will be the weight of 5 m of the same rod ?
"explanation : let the required weight be x kg . then , less length , less weight ( direct proportion ) = > 11.25 : 5 : : 42.75 : x = > 11.25 x x = 5 x 42.75 = > x = ( 5 x 42.75 ) / 11.25 = > x = 19 answer : c"
divide(multiply(5, 42.75), 11.25)
