एक फैक्ट्री हर दिन 18.75 लीटर रासायनिक पदार्थ का उपयोग करती है। सोमवार को इसने दैनिक मात्रा का केवल 2/3 उपयोग किया। मंगलवार को इसने सोमवार की तुलना में 25% अधिक प्रयोग किया। कुल मिलाकर दोनों दिनों में कितनी रासायनिक सामग्री का उपयोग किया गया?
Detailed Solution & Logic
28.125 liters/ लीटर
- Daily amount = 18.75 liters
- Monday = 2/3 of 18.75 =12.5
- Tuesday = 12.5+25% of 12.5=12.5+3.125=15.625 liters
- Total (Mon + Tue) = 12.5+15.625=28.125 liters
