  1. The number of standard cement bags required to prepare 1400 kg of concrete in the ratio of 1 : 2 : 4 (mixed by weight batching) is___________
    1. 1
    2. 2
    3. 3
    4. 4
Correct Option: D

1 : 2 : 4 → 1part cement : 2 part sand : 4 part aggregates
So, To make 7 kg of concrete, amount of cement required = 1 kg

So, To make 1 kg of concrete, amount of cement required =
1
kg
7

So, To make 1400 kg of concrete, amount of cement required =
1
× 1400 = 200 kg
7

1 bag of cement contains 50 kg of cement
Number of bags required =
200 kg
= 4 bags
50 kg
