The dairy cooperative sells 1 kg cow ghee for ₹574. The cooperative is able to produce around 125 kg of ghee in a month. How much do they earn by selling ghee in a month?

Correct Answer

Given: Price of 1 kg ghee = ₹574 Quantity produced = 125 kg

Formula: Total earnings = Price × Quantity

Substitution: Total earnings = 574×125574 \times 125

Calculation: 574×125574 \times 125 = 574 × (100 + 20 + 5) = (574×100574 \times 100) + (574×20574 \times 20) + (574×5574 \times 5) = 57,400 + 11,480 + 2,870 = 71,750

Answer: The cooperative earns ₹71,750 from the sale of cow ghee.
