Question

Mr. Volok buys 2.4 kg of sugar for his bakery.

Answer 1

Answer:

(a). 12 bags,

(b). 6 bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mr. Volok buys 2.4 kg of sugar for his bakery.

(a). To find the number of 0.2 kg sugar bag that can Mr. Volak fill from 2.4 kg, we will divide 2.4 by 0.2.

$\text{Number of 0.2 kg sugar bags}=\frac{2.4}{0.2}$

Multiply numerator and denominator by 10:

$\text{Number of 0.2 kg sugar bags}=\frac{24}{2}$

$\text{Number of 0.2 kg sugar bags}=12$

Therefore, Mr. Volok can make 12 bags of 0.2 kg sugar in each.

(b). To find the number of 0.4 kg sugar bag that can Mr. Volak fill from 2.4 kg, we will divide 2.4 by 0.4.

$\text{Number of 0.4 kg sugar bags}=\frac{2.4}{0.4}$

Multiply numerator and denominator by 10:

$\text{Number of 0.4 kg sugar bags}=\frac{24}{4}$

$\text{Number of 0.4 kg sugar bags}=6$

Therefore, Mr. Volok can make 6 bags of 0.4 kg sugar in each.
