Answer:

Explanation:

We first need to determine how many grams are in 3 kg.

3 kg *
(1000g)/(1kg) = 3000 g

Now we know that there are 3000 g in 3 kg. If we divide 3000 g by 75, we will determine how many packets of butter there are.

3000 / 75 = 40.

40 packets of butter. If 10 go into a box, that means that

40 / 10 = 4 boxes.
