Answer 1

Appropriate Question:

• A box contains 4 bags of sugar. The total mass of all 4 bags is 6 kg. What is the mass of each bag in grams?

Answer:

1500 g

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the provided question, we are given that a box has 4 bags, the total mass of all 4 bags is 6 kg.

We are asked to find the mass of each each bag in grams.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Let the mass of each bag be x. Firstly, we'll calculate mass of each bag in kg. After that, we'll convert kg into grams in order to find the mass of each each bag in grams.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

According to the question,

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\longmapsto$ Mass of each bag × 4 = 6 kg

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\longmapsto \sf { Mass \: of \: each \: bag = \dfrac{6}{4} \: kg }$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\longmapsto\boxed{ \sf { Mass \: of \: each \: bag = 1.5 \: kg}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

We got the answer in kg. Mass of each bag is 1.5 kg. Now, we have to convert kg into g because according to the question, we are asked to find the mass of each each bag in grams.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Conversion of kg into g :

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

We know that,

$\underline{\boxed {\sf{1 \: kg = 1000 \: g}}} \: \: \red{\bigstar}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

So,

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\longrightarrow \sf {1.5 \: kg = \Big ( 1.5 \times 1000 \Big ) \:g }$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\longrightarrow \sf {1.5 \: kg = \Bigg ( \dfrac{15}{10} \times 1000 \Bigg ) \:g }$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\longrightarrow \sf {1.5 \: kg = \Big ( 15 \times 100 \Big ) \:g }$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\longrightarrow \sf {1.5 \: kg = \Big ( 15 \times 100 \Big ) \:g }$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\longrightarrow\boxed{ \sf {1.5 \: kg = 1500 \:g }}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Therefore, mass of each bag in grams is 1500 g.
