A. 1000 kg
B. 1100 kg
C. 1125 kg
D. 1225 kg
Explanation:
Let the weight of fresh grapes be x kg
Quantity of water in it = (80/100 × x)kg = 4x/5 kg
Quantity of pulp in it = (x – 4x/5)kg = x/5 kg
Quantity of water in 250 kg dry grapes
= (10/100 × 250)kg = 25kg
Quantity of pulp in it = (250 – 25)kg = 225 kg
Therefore, x/5 = 225
=> x = 1125
