A shopkeeper sells 49 kg 208 g of sugar and 65 kg 750 g of flour. What is the total quantity of sugar and flour in grams?

Answer :

To find the total quantity of sugar and flour in grams, we'll first convert each amount given in kilograms and grams to just grams. Then, we'll add these two quantities together.

  1. Convert the quantity of sugar:

    • 49 kg is equivalent to [tex]49 \times 1000 = 49000[/tex] grams.
    • Add the remaining 208 grams, which gives us [tex]49000 + 208 = 49208[/tex] grams of sugar.

  2. Convert the quantity of flour:

    • 65 kg is equivalent to [tex]65 \times 1000 = 65000[/tex] grams.
    • Add the remaining 750 grams, which gives us [tex]65000 + 750 = 65750[/tex] grams of flour.

  3. Add the total quantities of sugar and flour together:

    • [tex]49208 + 65750 = 114958[/tex] grams.

Therefore, the total quantity of sugar and flour is 114,958 grams.
