let us take the total number of students which we doesn't know as "x1"
lets us take total grams consumed by the students every day as y1 = 50000 grams(50kg)
let us take x2 as the number of students who take drinks of 400 grams per day which we have to find out
take y2 as the the quantity of milk consumed by each student.
x1*y1=x2*y2
y2=400*x1
x1*50000=x2*400*x1
x2=50000/400
x2=125. according to me the answer would be 125 please correct me if i am wrong.
To find the number of students who take drinks in the hostel, we can use the following steps:
1. Determine the total amount of milk consumed per day: 50 kilograms.
2. Convert the kilograms to grams: 1 kilogram = 1000 grams, so 50 kilograms = 50,000 grams.
3. Divide the total amount of milk consumed by the amount each student receives: 50,000 grams ÷ 400 grams.
4. Calculate the number of students: 50,000 grams ÷ 400 grams = 125 students.
Therefore, there are 125 students who take drinks in the hostel.
