Question

If 3/4 of a box of apples weighs 3 kg and 225 gm, how much does a full box of apples weigh?

Answer 1

Let the total weight of a box of apple = x kg.

Weight of 3/4 of a box apples = 3 kg 225 gm. = 3.225 kg

34 × x = 3225

x = 3.225 × 43 kg = 1.075 × 4 kg 

= 4.3 kg = 4 kg 300 gm

Weight of the box of apples = 4 kg 300 gm.
