Answer 2

Answer:

The weight of the tomatoes is 4.425 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The Given:

Total weight of vegetables = 10 kg

Weight of potatoes = 3 kg + 500 g = 3.5 kg  

Weight of onions = 2 kg + 75 g = 2.075 kg

To find out:

The weight of the tomatoes.

Solution:

Let the weight of the tomatoes be 'x'

Then the total weight of the vegetable is given as,

  x + 3.5 + 2.075 = 10

  x + 5.575 = 10

  x = 10 - 5.575 = 4.425 kg

Hence the weight of the tomatoes is 4.425 g or we can say that 4 kg and 425 g.
