Question

The weight of a watermelon and a pumpkin is as given below.


What is the total weight of the watermelon and the pumpkin in grams?

• A. 3,212 g
• B. 3,047 g
• C. 3,558 g
• D. 3,105 g

Answer 1

The correct option is B 3,047 g

$\text{Weight of the watermelon = 2 kg 35 g}$
$\text{Weight of the pumpkin = 1 kg 12 g}$

$\text{We have to find the total weight of}$ $\text{the watermelon and the pumpkin}$ $\text{in grams.}$

$\text{First of all, we will have to convert}$ $\text{kilograms to grams.}$

$\text{We know that,}$
$\text{1 kilogram =}$ $\text{1,000 grams}$


$\text{Hence, we will multiply 2 with 1,000.}$

$\text{So, 2 kg}=2\times 1\text{kg}$
$=2\times 1000\text{g}$
$=2,000\text{g}$

$\text{Now, let's calculate the weight of}$ $\text{the watermelon and the pumpkin}$ $\text{in grams.}$




$\text{Now let's add both the weights.}$



$\text{Hence, the total weight of the}$ $\text{watermelon and the pumpkin is}$ $\text{3,047 g.}$
