Question

The weight 5/9 of a piece of metal is 35 kg. What is the weight 2/7 of the piece?​

Answer 1

Answer:

18kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The only big step here is to get both fractions to the same denominator

(1) $\frac{5}{9}$ = $\frac{35}{63}$  

(2) $\frac{2}{7}$ = $\frac{18}{63}$

After doing this, it is visible that the piece of metal weighs 63kg. Reason being that 5 parts of 9 is equal to 35 pats of 63.

So when calculating the weight of 2/7 of the piece of metal, it would be 18 parts.
