Question

Do these sums 232kg 256g×4

Answer 1

Solution:

Method 1 (with conversion into gram):

We know, 1 kg = 1000 grams

Now kg and g are converted into grams before doing addition and then we need to follow the simple addition process.

7 kg 350 g = (7 × 1000) g + 350 g = 7000 g + 350 g = 7350 grams

2 kg 150 g = (2 × 1000) g + 150 g = 2000 g + 150 g = 2150 grams

Now sum, 

            1

          7350 g

      +  2150 g

          9500 g

                   = 9 kg 500 g

Therefore, 7 kg 350 g + 2 kg 150 g = 9 kg 500 g
