Answer 2

Answer:

2.50 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Sujata bought a watermelon weighing 4.25 kg and gave 1 kg 750 g to the children in her neighborhood. How much of it does she have left?

So Sujata has bought a watermelon. The weight of the water melon is 4.25 kg.

So she gives 1 kg 750 grams to children of her neighborhood. So we need to subtract.

First we need to convert grams to kg.

1000 grams = 1 kg

750 grams will be 750 / 1000

                      = 0.75 kg

So 1 kg + 0.75 kg will be 1.75 kg

Upon subtracting 4.25 kg - 1.75 kg we get 2.50 kg

So the remaining weight of watermelon is 2.50 kg
