Question

8) What is the mass of the teddy bear if the toy car has a mass of 375 grams? 10 .S 0 4kg 3kg 1kg 2kg 000

Answer 1

The mass of the teddy is 1,225 grams

Here, we want to get the mass of the teddybear given the mass of the toy car

Since boith are on the scale, then it means they contribute to the mass on the scale

By reading the scale, we can see that the mass on the scale is 1.6 kg

As we know, 1000 g is 1 kg

It means 1.6 kg in g will be 1.6 * 1000 = 1,600 g

So, we can now subtract the mass of the toy car from this total to get the mass of the teddy

Mathematically, we have this as;

`1600\text{ g - 375 g =1,225 g}`
