Question

The largest tomato ever grown had a mass of 1.9 kg. The largest cabbage had a mass of 51.8 kg. Which mass is greater: 100 of those tomatoes or 10 of those cabbages? .Select the correct answer

A.
100 of those tomatoes

B.
10 of those cabbages

Answer 1

Answer: 10 of those cabbages (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass of one tomato = 1.9 kg

∴ Mass of 100 such tomatoes = 1.9 × 100

                                             = 190 kg

In the same way,

Mass of one cabbage = 51.8 kg

∴ Mass of 10 such cabbage = 51.8 × 10

                                          = 518 kg

Since, 518 kg > 190 kg ,

the mass of 10 such cabbages is greater than 100 such tomatoes
