Question

How many 30-g flower pots can a 6-kg pack of soil fill up? (1 g = 0.001 kg)

Answer 1

200 30-g flower pots can a 6-kg pack of soil fill up .

Explanation:

Here we have ,

Weight of flower pot as :

⇒
`x=30g`

Given there is a 6-kg pack of pack of soil , We need to find the number of flower pots we can have to fill up soil . Let's find out:

Let weight of pack of soil be :

⇒
`y=6kg`

⇒
`y=6(1000g)`

⇒
`y=6000g`

Hence , the number of flower pots we can have is given by :

⇒
`(y)/(x)= (6000)/(30)`

⇒
`(30(200))/(30)`

⇒
`200`

Therefore , 200 30-g flower pots can a 6-kg pack of soil fill up .
