Question

Rajani is carrying 9.725 kg of vegetables and Mamta is carrying 8.50 kg of vegetables. Who is carrying more and how much?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

let Rajani be carrying r = 9.725kg

let Mamata be carrying m = 8.500kg

difference = r - m = 9.725 - 8.500 = 1.225kg

hence Rajani is carrying 1.225kg more than Mamata

Answer 2

Rajini is carrying more, since 9.725 kg = 9725 g and 8.50 kg = 8500 g, and 9725 is more than 8500.

To find out how much more vegetables Rajini is carrying, you have to SUBTRACT Mamta’s amount from it.

So: 9725 g - 8500 g = 1025 g

and 1025 g = 1.025 kg

Answer: Rajini is carrying 1.025 kg more vegetables than Mamta.
