Question

The total weight of 2 apples is $1.22kg$. If each apple weighs the same, the weight of 1 apple is

• A. 0.71 kg
• B. 0.61 kg
• C. 0.72 kg
• D. 0.62 kg

Answer 1

The correct option is B 0.61 kg

Total weight of $2$ apples $=1.22kg$
Each apple weighs the same.

∴Weight of $1$ apple $=1.22kg÷2$

The total weight of $1.22kg$ is represented using a grid model as:


To calculate $1.22kg÷2$, we divide the given model into $2$ equal parts.


Dividing 122 blocks into 2 equal parts, we get 61 blocks in each part.

Hence, $1.22kg÷2=0.61kg$

Calculating $1.22÷2$ using the standard model, we get:


Therefore, the weight of $1$ apple is $0.61kg$
