Question

From the figure given below, find the weight of the mangoes.

• A. 2 kg
• B. 2.4 kg
• C. 2.8 kg
• D. 3 kg

Answer 1

The correct option is B

2.4 kg

Weight of mangoes + 100 g + 500 g
= 1 kg + 2 kg
$\Rightarrow$ Weight of mangoes + 600 g = 3 kg
$\Rightarrow$ Weight of mangoes = 3 kg - 600 g

Now, we need to convert the units.
Since we need the final answer in kilograms, let us convert 600 grams to kilograms.

1 kg = 1000 g
$\Rightarrow$ 600 g =$\frac{600}{1000}$ kg
= 0.6 kg

$\therefore$ Weight of mangoes = 3 kg - 0.6 kg
= 2.4 kg
