Question

What percent of 8.4 kg is 168 grams?​

Answer 1

168 gms is 3.5% of 8.4 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

• We are given two weights as 8.4 kg and 168 gms.

• Since, both are weights but their units are different.

• To find out the percentage, we convert them to same unit.

Therefore, we write as;

• 8.4 kg = $8.4 \times 1000$ grams

                    = 8400 gms

Now, we assume that 168 gm is x% of 8400 gm.

• We can write it mathematically as;

• $4800 \times \dfrac{x}{100} = 168$

On further simplification, we get.

• $x = \dfrac{168}{48} \%$

       x = 3.5%

Thus, 168 gms is 3.5% of 8.4 kg.
