Question

kate brought 2 whole 1 upon 4 kg apples 3 whole 1 upon 5 kg graps and 2 whole 2 upon 3 kg banana. what was the Total weight of all fruits​

Answer 1

$\bf \large{\red{Apples =2\frac{1}{4}kg}}$

$\bf\large{\red{Grapes=3\frac{1}{5}kg}}$

$\bf\large{\red{Banana=2\frac{2}{3}kg}}$

Now solve these mixed fractions into improper fraction.

$\bf \large{\green{ =2\frac{1}{4}kg=\frac{2 \times 4 + 1}{4} = \frac{9}{4}}}$

$\bf \large{\green{ =3\frac{1}{5}kg=\frac{3 \times 5 + 1}{5} = \frac{16}{5}}}$

$\bf \large{\green{ =2\frac{2}{3}kg=\frac{2 \times 3 + 2}{3} = \frac{8}{3}}}</p><p>$

Now take L.C.M. to make the denominators same.

L.C.M. of 4,5,3=2×2×3×5=60

_____________________________

$\bf \large{\pink{\frac{9}{4}×\frac{15}{15}=\frac{135}{60}}}$

$\bf \large{\pink{\frac{16}{5}×\frac{12}{12}=\frac{192}{60}}}$

$\bf \large{\pink{\frac{8}{3}×\frac{20}{20}=\frac{160}{60}}}$

Now add them to find total weight=>

$\bf \large{\purple{\frac{ = 135+192+160}{60}=\frac{487}{60}}}$

$\bf \large{\purple{=8.11kg}}$

$\bf{\pink{So \: the \: total \: weight \: of \: fruits \: is \: 8.11kg}}</p><p>$
