Question

A wet cloth weighs 5 Kg. After drying, its weight reduces to 4300 gm. How much did the water in the wet cloth weigh?

Answer 1

Weight of wet cloth = 5 kg = 5000 g
Weight of dry cloth = 4300 g

Weight of dry cloth + Weight of water = Weight of wet cloth
So, 4300 + Weight of water = 5000
4300 + 700 = 5000

So, weight of water = 700 g
