Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

convert all the units into grams

the answer would be

6400-[(12*250)+(8*300)]

that is 1000 grams

which equals 1 kg

thus answer is (3) 1 kg

Answer 2

Answer:

2 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

12 articles weighting 250g = 3kg

8 articles weighting 300g = 2kg 400g

wieght of box the articles = 6kg 400g

weight of box = total wieght - weight of articles

total weight of articles = 3kg + 2kg 400g

=5kg 400g

weight of box = 6kg 400g- 5kg 400g

weight of box = 1kg
