Millie needs to cook a roast lamb for 1 hour and 50 minutes at 356c. How much does the roast weigh in kilo grams if the recommendation is 20 minutes for every 250 grams

Respuesta :

Answer:

The roast weighed 1.375 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know what the roast lamb will weigh in kilograms given its cooking time.

From the question, we are told that to cook 250 grams, 20 minutes is need.

So let’s make a relationship here,

Firstly let’s express 1 hour and 50 minuets in minutes, that will be 60 + 50 = 110 minutes( 1 hour is 60 minutes)

Now;

let’s have our relationship;

20 minutes = 250 grams

110 minutes = x grams

By cross multiplication;

20 * x = 250 * 110

20x = 27,500

x = 27500/20

x = 1,375 grams

But, mathematically 1000g = 1kg

So 1,375 will be 1375/1000 = 1.375 kg
