Solution

The correct option is C Quarter of a kg
In order to balance the 500 g an equal weight should be placed in the right pan.

Right pan already has 250g weight.

Weight required

= 500 g -250 g

= 250 g

1 kg = 1000 g

Half of a kg = 500 g

Quarter of a kg = 250 g

Thus the required weight is Quarter of a kg.
