Answer:

4


Step-by-step explanation:

Find the prime factors of 40:

40 = 2³ x 5


So the standard weights that we need will be 1, 2, 5 and 40

⇒ there are 4 distinct standard weights


Further explanation:

Any weight in between 1 and 40 can be made up by any of these standard weight.

E.G. 39 = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 2


Answer: 4

40=2×2×2×5

i.e..

the minimum number of standard weight required for this is =(1×3)+1=4
