AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of distributing 9 kg of sweets into 40 boxes and finding the quantity of sweets in each box in grams, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert kilograms to grams First, we need to convert the total weight of sweets from kilograms to grams. We know that: 1 kg = 1000 grams. So, we convert 9 kg to grams: \[ 9 \text{ kg} = 9 \times 1000 \text{ grams} = 9000 \text{ grams} \] ### Step 2: Divide the total grams by the number of boxes Next, we need to find out how many grams of sweets will be in each box. We do this by dividing the total grams of sweets by the number of boxes: \[ \text{Quantity of sweets in each box} = \frac{9000 \text{ grams}}{40 \text{ boxes}} \] ### Step 3: Perform the division Now, we perform the division: \[ \frac{9000}{40} = 225 \text{ grams} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the quantity of sweets in each box is: \[ \text{Quantity of sweets in each box} = 225 \text{ grams} \] ---
