Correct Answer

Given: First basket: 2 kg 100 g Second basket: 3 kg 950 g

Step 1: Add the weights: 2 kg 100 g + 3 kg 950 g

Step 2: Add kg: 2 + 3 = 5 kg

Step 3: Add g: 100 + 950 = 1,050 g = 1 kg 50 g

Step 4: Total = 5 kg + 1 kg 50 g = 6 kg 50 g

Alternative Method: Convert to grams: 2,100 + 3,950 = 6,050 g Convert back: 6,050 g = 6 kg 50 g

Explanation

The chapter explains addition of weights. Add 2 kg 100 g and 3 kg 950 g. Add kg: 2 + 3 = 5 kg. Add g: 100 + 950 = 1,050 g = 1 kg 50 g. Total = 5 kg + 1 kg 50 g = 6 kg 50 g. Alternatively, convert to grams: 2,100 + 3,950 = 6,050 g = 6 kg 50 g.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Add the weights: 2 kg 100 g + 3 kg 950 g

  2. Step 2: Add kg: 2 + 3 = 5 kg

  3. Step 3: Add g: 100 + 950 = 1,050 g = 1 kg 50 g

  4. Step 4: Total = 5 kg + 1 kg 50 g = 6 kg 50 g
