How many kilograms of sand does Jim have in his sandbox now?

Answer 1

Given:

(i) Jim has 19700gm of sand in his sandbox.

(ii) He brings home another 6300gm of sand from beach.

To find:

(i) How many kilograms of sand does Jim have in his sandbox now?

Solution:

Jim has 19700gm of sand in his sandbox.

Again, he brings home another 6300gm sand from the beach and adds to the sandbox.

So, the total amount of sand Jim has in its sandbox

= (19700+6300)gm

= 26000 gm

Since 1 kg = 1000gm

So, 26000gm = 26kg

So, Jim has 26kg in his sandbox.
