Guidelines for Solving Exercise 5 on Page 48 of Math 5 Textbook
The weight of the orange bag: a) ...kg b) ....g
Solution Method:
* Observation: Examining the diagram closely, we notice that the weight of the orange bag on the left side of the scale will be equal to the total mass of 4 weights (on the right side of the scale).
* Solution Approach:
- Calculate the total weight of the weights on the right plate by adding the weight of each weight together
=> Note: It's essential to convert to the same unit of measurement (the smallest unit) before performing addition
Answer:
Convert 1kg = 1000g
The total weight of the weights on the right plate is:
1000g + 500g + 200g + 100g = 1800g
1800g = 1.8kg
So, the orange bag weighs 1.8kg or 1800g
=> Fill in as follows:
a) 1.8kg;
b) 1800g.
