Question

Andrew's sanwich consists of a 20-gram piece of cheese, a 60-gram piece of Turkey, and two 30-gram slices of bread. What is the total weight of Andrew's sanwich, in Kilograms?

Answer 1

0.14

Explanation:

The way to solve this problem is to add everything together. 20+60 is 80, and there are two 30 gram slices of bread (30 x 2 = 60) so you add the 80 from before to the two slices of bread, which is 80 + 60, and that equals 140 grams total. Since there are 1000 grams in 1 kilogram, you have to divide this by 1000, giving you 0.14 or 14/1000.
