Price And Petrol
1. Stating problem 19: Price of chicken is 3 times price of bread. Total spent on 1 bread + 1 chicken = RM5 - RM1 = RM4.
2. Let price of bread = $x$. Then price of chicken = $3x$.
3. Equation from total cost: $x + 3x = 4$
4. Simplify: $4x = 4$
5. Solve for $x$: $x = 1$
6. So price of bread = RM1, price of chicken = $3 \times 1 = RM3$.
7. Cost for 3 breads and 2 chickens: $3 \times 1 + 2 \times 3 = 3 + 6 = RM9$.
1. Stating problem 20: Car uses 50 liters petrol for 510 km. Need petrol for two-way trip of $2 \times 754.8 = 1509.6$ km.
2. Petrol consumption rate: $\frac{50}{510}$ liters per km.
3. Total petrol needed: $\frac{50}{510} \times 1509.6 = \frac{50 \times 1509.6}{510}$ liters.
4. Calculate: $\frac{50 \times 1509.6}{510} = \frac{75480}{510} = 148$ liters.
Final answers:
- Question 19: RM9
- Question 20: 148 liters
