Mr. Rao bought 2 3/4 kg of sugar and 3 1/2 kg of rice. Find the total weight of the sugar and rice bought by him .total wait ?​

Answer 1

Answer: Total weight = $6\frac{1}{4}$ kg

Step-by-step explanation: Weight of Sugar = $2\frac3{4}$ kg = $\frac{11}{4}$ kg

                                             Weight of Rice = $3\frac{1}{2}$ kg = $\frac{7}{2\\}$ kg

Total weight = Weight of Sugar + Weight of rice

                       = $\frac{11}{4}$ + $\frac{7}{2\\}$ kg

 Lcm of 2,4 = 4

Total weight =  $\frac{11}{4}$ +  $\frac{7}{2\\}$ * $\frac{2}{2}$              

                      =  $\frac{11}{4}$ + $\frac{14}{4}$ kg

                     = $\frac{25}{4}$ kg

Total weight = $6\frac{1}{4}$ kg
