Question

A grocer sold 320kg 500g of wheat, 600kg of sugar and 450kg 750g of rice. How much did he sell in all ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\sf \green {\therefore The \: amount \: of \: wheat, \: sugar \: and \: rice}$ $\sf \green {which \: sold = 1371.25 \: kg \: (or) \: 1371 \: kg}$ $\sf \green {250 \: g}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 g = 1 kg

$\sf 500 \: g = \frac{5 \cancel0 \cancel0}{10 \cancel0 \cancel0} = \frac{5}{10} = 0.5 \: kg$

$\sf 750 \: g = \frac{75 \cancel0}{100 \cancel0} = \frac{75}{100} = 0.75 \: kg$

320 kg + 0.5 kg = 320.5 kg

450 kg + 0.75 kg = 450.75 kg

The amount of wheat, sugar and rice which sold = 320.5 kg + 600 kg + 450.75 kg

= 920.5 kg + 450.75 kg = 1371.25 kg
