A builder mixes sand cement in the ratio of 4:1. Altogether he mixes 250kg. How much sand and cement does he use?

Sand = 200kg

Cement = 50 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of sand he mixes = 250 kg

Weight of sand and cement he uses = ?

To solve this we have to use a branch of mathematics called Algebra.

Let the amount of Sand be 4x

Let the amount of cement be x

Weight of sand= 4x

= 4 × 50

= 200

And

Weight of cement = x

= 50

So therefore the weight of Sand and cement is 200kg and 50 kg respectively.

Hope it helps you!!
