Question

A farmer sells 8.7 kilograms of pears and apples at the farmer's market. 3/4 of this weight is pears, and the rest is apples. How many kilograms of apples did she sell at the farmer's market?

Answer 1

2.2 kg

Explanation:

1000g = 1kg

8700g = 8.7kg

3/4 = 75%

8700 / 100 = 87

87 * 75 = 6525

8700 - 6525 = 2175

2.175kg or if rounded 2.2kg
