Detailed Solution

Sunita purchased 5kg 75 g of fruits and 3 kg 465 g of vegetables, and put them in a bag. If this bag with these contents weighs 9 kg. So, the weight of the empty bag is 460 g.
Given,
Weight of fruits
= 5 kg 75 g
Since, 1 kg = 1000 g
5 kg 75 g = 5kg + 0.075kg
5 kg 75 g = 5.075 kg
Similarly, the weight of vegetables
= 3 kg 465 kg
= 3.465 kg [1 kg = 1000 g]
Total weight of both = 5.075 kg + 3.465 kg
=8.540 kg
Gross weight of bag with these things = 9 kg = 9.000 kg
Weight of the empty bag= 9.000 - 8.540
= 0.460 kg[1 kg = 1000 g]
= 460 g
Hence, the weight of an empty bag is 460g.
