16. A watermelon weighs 5000 gm. 99% of its weight is water. It is kept in a drying room and after some time it turns out that it is only 98% water by weight. What is its weight now?

  • Option : A
  • Explanation :

    Non-water matter is 1% of 5000 = 50 gm.
    After drying, this matter becomes 2% of the weight of the watermelon.
    Hence weight of the watermelon now is 2500 gm.
