Question

12 cakes of soap together weigh 5 kg and 604 gm. Find the weight of
(i) One cake in both kg and gramme
(ii) 5 cakes in kg.

Sum

Solution

Weight of 12 cakes of soap = 5 kg and

604 gm = 5 kg and `604/1000` kg

= 5.604 kg.

(i) Weight of 12 cakes = 5.604 kg

∴ Weight of 1 cake = `5.604/12`

= 0.467 kg

(ii) Weight of one cake = 0.467 kg

Weight of five cakes = 0.467 × 5

= 2.335 kg.
