Answer:
The weight of the watermelon is 1125 gram or 1.125 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
X is the weight of the watermelon
The youngest daughter will get 2x/9
The middle daughter will get 3x/9
The eldest daughter will get 4x/9
If the eldest daughter gets 250 gram more than that of the youngest
(4x/9) - (2x/9) = 250
2x/9 = 250
x = 1125
So the weight of the watermelon is 1125 gram or 1.125 kg
