  • Question
  • How many number of weights do you need to weight 31 kg of Rice if you have one kg of weight stone ?


  • Options
  • A. 3
  • B. 5
  • C. 7
  • D. 9

  • Correct Answer


  • Explanation

    There are total 5 ways.
    we have only one kg of weight so,
    2kg = 1kg + 1kg
    4kg = 1 + 2 + 1
    8kg = 1 + 2 + 4 + 1
    16kg = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 1
    31kg = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16
    So 5 weights are needed.
