Question

Shyama bought 5kg 300g apples and 3kg 250g mangoes. Sarala bought 4kg 800g oranges and 4kg 150g bananas. ____ has bought more fruit than ____.

Accepted Answer

Concept- Sarala has bought more fruit than Shyama.
Consider the whole amount of fruit that Sarala and Shyama purchased. Next, convert it to one kilogramme or gramme. Compare it and you will get the answer.
A physical body's mass is a characteristic as well as a gauge of how resistant it is to acceleration, or a change in its state of motion, when a net force is applied. The strength of an object's gravitational pull to other bodies is also influenced by its mass.
The kilogramme is the fundamental mass unit of SI (kg). Even though weight is frequently measured using a spring scale rather than a balancing scale and directly compared with known masses, mass is not the same as weight in physics.
Due to the lower gravity on the Moon, an object would weigh less than it does on Earth while maintaining the same mass. Given that weight is a force and thus
At least seven separate elements of mass, or seven different physical ideas that incorporate the concept of mass, can be conceptually distinguished. These seven values have been proportional, and in some cases equal, in every experiment conducted to date, giving rise to the concept of mass in general.
When a mass is accelerated away from free fall, the force known as "weight" is proportional to both mass and acceleration.
Thus, the apples and mangoes that Shyama purchased are fruits.
Now the weight of apples is 5 kg 300g
The weight of mangoes is 3 kg 250g
So we know the conversion, 1 kg = 1000 g.
So converting we get,
Weight of apples = (5100+300) g = 5300 g = (5×1000+300) g = 5300 g
Weight of mangoes = (3000+250) g = 3250 g = (3×1000+250) g = 3250 g
So total weight of fruits bought by Shyama = weight of apple + weight of mangoes
= 5300+3250 = 8550 g
= (81000+550) g = 8 kg 550 g
= 5300+3250 = 8550 g
= (8×1000+550) g = 8kg 550g
So the total weight of fruits bought by Shyama is 8550 g or 8 kg 550 g (1)
Now for Sarala, the weight of oranges she bought is 4 kg 800 g.
Weight of bananas is 4 kg 150 g.
So we know the conversion,
1 kg = 1000 g
So converting we get,
Weight of apples = (41000+800) g = 4800 g
Weight of mangoes = (41000+150) g = 4150g
So total weight of fruits bought by Sarala = weight of oranges+weight of bananas
= 4800+4150 = 8950 g = (81000+950) g = 8 kg 950 g
So, the total weight of fruits bought by Sarala is 8950 for 8 kg 950 g (2)
So, from (1) and (2), we can see 8950 g > 8550 g
Hence, the answer is Sarala, Shyama.

Shyama bought 5kg 300g apples and 3kg 250g mangoes. Sarala bought 4kg 800g oranges and 4kg 150g bananas. has bought more fruit than .
