Question

If the weight of 12sheets of thick paper is 40 grams how many sheets of the same paper would weight 16 2/3 kilograms

Answer 1

Answer:5000 sheets

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the weight of 12 sheets as 40 grams......

So , weight per sheet = 10/3 grams

Thus , taking the no. of sheets required as X......

(10/3 grams)(X)= 16 2/3 kg

So, (10/3 grams)(X)= 16 2/3 × 1000 grams

Thus, on calculating we get X = 5000

So, 5k sheets weigh 16 2/3 kg
