Question

A farmer needs 10 grams of seed to plant one square metre of wheat. The farmer wants to plant a field of 15
hectares. Work out how many kilograms of seed he needs.

Answer 1

Answer:

1kg 500g

Step-by-step explanation:

1 hectare = 10,000 square meters

15 hectares = 10,000 × 15

= 1,50,000,,

Seeds needed for 1square meter =10grams

Seed needed for 15hectares=1,50,000×10g

= 15,00,000g

Convert 15,00,000g into kg

1 kg = 1000g

= 15,00,000/1000

= 1,500kg

= 1kg 500g,,
