The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding out by how much the weight of apples is less than the weight of papayas, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Convert weights to grams**: - The weight of papayas is given as 3 kg 30 g. - Convert 3 kg to grams: \[ 3 \text{ kg} = 3 \times 1000 \text{ g} = 3000 \text{ g} \] - Therefore, the total weight of papayas in grams is: \[ 3000 \text{ g} + 30 \text{ g} = 3030 \text{ g} \] 2. **Convert the weight of apples to grams**: - The weight of apples is given as 1 kg 765 g. - Convert 1 kg to grams: \[ 1 \text{ kg} = 1 \times 1000 \text{ g} = 1000 \text{ g} \] - Therefore, the total weight of apples in grams is: \[ 1000 \text{ g} + 765 \text{ g} = 1765 \text{ g} \] 3. **Calculate the difference in weight**: - Now, we need to find out how much less the weight of apples is compared to the weight of papayas: \[ \text{Difference} = \text{Weight of Papayas} - \text{Weight of Apples} \] \[ \text{Difference} = 3030 \text{ g} - 1765 \text{ g} = 1265 \text{ g} \] 4. **Convert the difference back to kg and g**: - To express 1265 g in kg and g: \[ 1265 \text{ g} = 1 \text{ kg} + 265 \text{ g} \] ### Final Answer: The weight of apples is less than the weight of papayas by **1 kg 265 g**.
