a) 1100 gm
b) 1050 gm
c) 1030 gm
d) 1010 gm
Correct answer is: b) 1050 gm
Explanation
 8  kg of stainless steel is required  560  gm chromium
 \therefore 1  kg of stainless steel is required  =\large\frac{560}{8}  gm chromium
 \therefore 15  kg of stainless steel is required  =\large\left(\frac{560\times15}{8}\right)  gm chromium
 \rightarrow 1050  gm chromium
Ans:  1050  gm of chromium required to make  15  kg stainless steel.
Another way, Rules of Three Method

Here, Chromium and Stainless Steel are Directly Proportional.
 \therefore\;8\;:\;15\;:\;:\;560\;:\;x 
 \rightarrow\large\frac{8}{15}=\frac{560}{x} 
 \rightarrow 8x=560\times15 
 \rightarrow x=\large\frac{560\times15}{8} 
 \rightarrow x=1050  gm
Ans:  1050  gm of chromium required to make  15  kg stainless steel.
Additional variations of this particular math query are:
- If 560 gm of chromium is needed to make 8 kg of stainless steel, how much chromium is required to make 15 kg of stainless steel?
- How many grams of chromium are needed to produce 15 kg of stainless steel if 560 gm of chromium is required for 8 kg?
- If 560 gm of chromium is used to make 8 kg of stainless steel, how much chromium is needed to produce 15 kg of stainless steel?
- Suppose 560 gm of chromium is necessary to make 8 kg of stainless steel. How much chromium is required to make 15 kg of stainless steel?
