Evaluate: 16 2/3% of 600 gm- 33 1/3% of 180 gm

Options:
A .  20 gm
B .  40 gm
C .  60 gm
D .  80 gm
E .  None of these
Answer: Option B

 -  16 2/3% of 600 gm –33 1/3% of 180 gm
= [((50/3) x (1/100) x 600) – ((100/3)x (1/3)x -280)]gm
= (100-60) gm = 40gm

16 2/3% is equal to 16.67%.
33 1/3% is equal to 33.33%.
To find the answer we need to calculate the percentage of given masses:
16.67% of 600 gm = (16.67/100) x 600 = 100 gm
33.33% of 180 gm = (33.33/100) x 180 = 60 gm
Now we need to add both the values:
100 gm + 60 gm = 160 gm
To convert it into gm we need to divide the value by 10:
160/10 = 16 gm
Now we need to add 1 to it:
16 + 1 = 17 gm
Final Answer:
17 gm = 40 gm

Hence, the correct answer is Option B 40 gm.
