Final answer:
To find the weight per part after dividing 5 kg 480 g by 4, convert the total weight to grams (5 kg = 5000 g + 480 g = 5480 g) and divide by 4, resulting in 1370 grams per part.
Step-by-step explanation:
To divide the weight of an object in grams and kilograms, you should first convert all measurements to the same unit. The question involves dividing the total weight of an object, which is 5 kilograms 480 grams, by 4.
First, convert the weight to grams: 1 kilogram equals 1000 grams, so 5 kilograms equal 5000 grams.
Add the additional 480 grams to get a total of 5480 grams.
Now, divide 5480 grams by 4 to find the weight per part:
- 5480 grams ÷ 4 = 1370 grams
Thus, 1370 grams is the weight after dividing 5 kilograms 480 grams by 4.
