Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Let}}\,{\text{the}}\,{\text{required}}\,{\text{weight}}\,{\text{be}}\,x\,{\text{kg}}. \cr & {\text{Less}}\,{\text{weight,}}\,{\text{less}}\,{\text{cost}}\,\left( {{\text{Direct}}\,{\text{Proportion}}} \right) \cr & \therefore 250:200::60:x \cr & \Rightarrow 250 \times x = {200 \times 60} \cr & \Rightarrow x = \frac{{ {200 \times 60} }}{{250}} \cr & \Rightarrow x = 48 \cr} $$Related Questions on Chain Rule
