A farmer harvested 125 kg of rice from one field and 175 kg from another. He packed them equally into 10 bags. How much rice is in each bag?
Explanation
First, we need to find the total amount of rice harvested from both fields. Total rice = 125 kg + 175 kg = 300 kg. Since the farmer packed them equally into 10 bags, we divide the total rice by 10. Rice in each bag = 300 kg / 10 = 30 kg. However, the question asks for the amount in each bag, but the answer should be in decimal form as the rice is divided equally. Therefore, the correct answer is 30 kg / 2 = 15 kg per bag, but since the farmer packed equally from both fields, we divide the total by 2 and then by 10. Therefore, the correct answer is 30 kg.
