Ali purchased a container of mandain oranges that weight 3 kilograms. Mia purchased a container of mandarin oranges that weight 3250 grams. How man more grams of mandarine oranges did mia purchased?

Respuesta :

For this case we have to, by definition:

1 Kilogram is equivalent to 1000 grams

If Ali bought 3 kg of mandarin orange, we make a rule of three to determine how many grams are:

1 kg ------------> 1000 g

3 kg ------------> x

Where "x" represents the amount of grams that Ali bought.

[tex]x = \frac {3 * 1000} {1}\\x = 3000 \ grams[/tex]

If Mia bought 3250 grams of mandarin oranges, and we want to know how many grams I buy more than Ali, we subtract:

[tex]3250 \ g-3000 \ g = 250 \ g[/tex]

So, Mia bought 250 grams more mandarin orange than Ali.

Answer:

250 grams
