Answer 1

The student bought a total of 1,800 grams of fruit after converting and summing the weights of oranges, grapes, and apples.The correct option is b) 5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking how many grams of fruit they bought in total after purchasing 1.5 kilograms of oranges, 150 grams of grapes, and 15,000 centigrams of apples. To find the total weight, we first convert all the quantities to grams.

1 kilogram is equal to 1,000 grams, so 1.5 kilograms of oranges is 1,500 grams.

150 grams of grapes is already in grams.

1 centigram is equal to 0.01 grams, so 15,000 centigrams of apples is 150 grams.

Now, we add all the weights in grams:

1,500 g (oranges) + 150 g (grapes) + 150 g (apples) = 1,800 grams

Therefore, the student bought a total of 1,800 grams of fruit.The correct option is: b) 5 kg
