If I have 5 potatoes weighing a total of 1 kg what would each potato weigh?

Each potato would weigh 200 grams. 1 kg is the equivalent to 1000 grams. So, if you divide 1000 by 5, you get 200 grams. Good luck!

From the information given, we don't know how much each potato weighs. All we know is that when you add up all 5 of them you get one kilogram.
If all five have exactly the same weight then it's 200 grams.
