Solution

Total weight of vegetables bought = 10.000 kg

Weight of onions = 3 kg 500 g = 3.500 kg

Weight of tomatoes = 2 kg 75 g = 2.075 kg

Weight of potatoes = Total weight of vegetables bought − (Weight of onions + Weight of tomatoes)

= 10.000 − (3.500 + 2.075)

Hence, the weight of the potatoes was 4.425 kg.
