Question

Represent 250 grams as a fraction of a kilogram. (1 kilogram = 1000 grams)

• A. $\frac{1}{2}$
• B. $\frac{1}{4}$
• C. $\frac{1}{3}$
• D. $\frac{2}{3}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B

$\frac{1}{4}$

1 kg = 1000 g
250 grams as a fraction of 1 kg $=\frac{250}{1000}$
Cancelling zeros we get,
$\frac{25}{100}=\frac{1}{4}$ (reducing to the lowest terms by dividing Numerator and Denominator by 25)
