Answer 1

A. 4,000 grams

Explanation:

1 kilogram = 1,000 grams

24 kilograms = 24,000 grams

Mass of clay = 24 kilograms = 24,000 grams

Number of bags = 6

how many grams of clay are in each bag?

Grams of clay in each bag = Total mass of clay / number of bags

= 24,000 grams / 6 bags

= 4,000 grams per bag

Grams of clay in each bag = 4,000 grams
