Question

A trader is cycling with a basket of 28 pineapples on the front of her bicycle weighing 14kg. how much does each pineapple weigh?

Answer 1

.5 kg per pineapple

Explanation:

We know that 28 pineapples are 14 kg

If we put that into an equation it would be 28p =14 kg

since we're looking for just one pineapple weight divide each side by 28

So, 1p = 14/28 or .5 kg

1 pineapple equals half a kilogram

Answer 2

2 kg.
