Question

A box of modelling clay with a mass of 6.9 kg is divided equally among 12 students.

How many grams does each student get?

Answer 1

Each student gets 575 gram of clay

Explanation:

1 kg = 1000 g

Mass of the total clay = 6.9 kg = 6.9 * 1000 = 6900.0 = 6900 g

Clay received by each student = Total / Number of students

= 6900 / 12

= 575 g
