Question

calculate the mass of a single pin if 60 identical pins have a mass of 300g

Answer 1

Answer:

calculate the mass of a single pin if 60 identical pins have a mass of 300g

Answer 2

Answer:

The mass of a single pin will be 5g.

Explanation:

Given:

Number of pins (n) = 60

Mass of 60 pins (M) = 300g

To find:

Mass of a single pin (m₁) =?

Solution:

There are 60 identical pins having equal masses.

The collective mass of the 60 pins is given to be 300g.

We have to find the mass of a single pin. Let the mass of a single pin be x.

60 pins weigh 300g.

1 pin weighs x

Therefore,

x = 300/60

x = 5g

Mass of one pin = 5g

Therefore, the mass of a single pin is 5g.
