An ore contains 20% zinc. How many kilograms of ore are needed to get 45 kg of zinc?

Show answer

225 kg

Step 1: Let the ore needed be x kg. Step 2: 20% of x = 45. Step 3: (20/100) × x = 45. Step 4: x = 45 × 100 ÷ 20 = 225. So, 225 kg of ore is needed.

A basket has 250 mangoes. 12% are rotten and 10% of the remaining mangoes are crushed. How many mangoes are in good condition?

Show answer

Step 1: Rotten mangoes = 12% of 250 = 30. Step 2: Remaining mangoes = 250 - 30 = 220. Step 3: Crushed mangoes = 10% of 220 = 22. Step 4: Good mangoes = 220 - 22 = 198. So, 198 mangoes are in good condition.
