Today my father has bought 15kg. Of rice for Rs. 390. Let’s work out using the Rule of Three method how much he would require if he would have bought the same quality of 17 kg of rice.
theorem1:-
The Rule of Three is a Mathematical Rule that allows you to solve problems based on proportions. By having three numbers: a, b, c,
(a)Direct proportions rule of 3:-
if a
b
c
then ![]()
(b)inverse proportions rule of 3:-
if a
b
c
then ![]()

method used is called direct proportions method
formula:- (i)direct method----![]()
(ii)indirect or inverse proportions or inverse proportions xy=k
GIVEN :-15 kg of rice cost RS 390
1 kg of rice cost will be
![]()
17 kg of rice cost will be
![]()
therefore RS 442 will be the cost of 17 kg rice.
