At the deli counter, Marisol orders 740 grams of ham, 520 grams of turkey, and half as much roast beef as ham. What is the total

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

1.63 Kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

I started by finding out what the roast beef weighed. Then I added 740, 520, and 370 (what the roast beef weighs). I can work that way because they are all in grams. The total off all that equals 1630 grams. Then I converted that to kilograms. Which will end up giving you 1.63 kilograms.
