Question

Mr. Bruce has some clay with a mass of 24 kilograms. If he puts the same amount of clay into 6 bags, how many grams of clay are in each bag? I NEED THE EXPLANATION

Answer 1

4000grams in each bag

Explanation:

Assume he put x amount of clay into each bag, he then put 6x into 6 bags.(since the question didn’t mention, I assume he put every clay he has into the bags)

6x=24kg

x=4kg

Since the question is asking for grams not kilograms:

4kg=4000g

Answer 2

So you do 24 kg divided by six which is 4 so there is 4kg of clay in each bag
