903 kg of potatoes will be delivered to stores in Bronx
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, lamar has 1354.5 Kilograms of potatoes to deliver equally to 18 stores
12 of the stores are Bronx
Number of stores in Bronx = 12
From given,
Kilograms of potatoe = 1354.5 kg
Total number of stores = 18
<em><u>Let us first find the kilograms of potato delivered to 1 store</u></em>
![\text{kg of potato to 1 store } = \frac{\text{Total kg of potato}}{\text{ total number of stores}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7Bkg%20of%20potato%20to%201%20store%20%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5Ctext%7BTotal%20kg%20of%20potato%7D%7D%7B%5Ctext%7B%20total%20number%20of%20stores%7D%7D)
Substituting the values we get,
![\text{kg of potato to 1 store } = \frac{1354.5}{18} = 75.25](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctext%7Bkg%20of%20potato%20to%201%20store%20%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1354.5%7D%7B18%7D%20%3D%2075.25)
Thus 75.25 kg potato is delivered to 1 store
<em><u>How many kilograms of potatoes will be delivered to stores in Bronx</u></em>
Number of stores in bronx is 12, so multiply 75.25 by 12
![\rightarrow 12 \times 75.25 = 903](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Crightarrow%2012%20%5Ctimes%2075.25%20%3D%20903)
Thus 903 kg of potatoes will be delivered to stores in Bronx
