The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, let's break it down: **Step 1: Convert the total weight of wheat from kilograms and grams to grams.** - Neena bought 5 kg 500 g of wheat. - We know that 1 kg = 1000 g. - Therefore, 5 kg = 5 × 1000 g = 5000 g. - Now, add the additional 500 g to this amount. - Total weight in grams = 5000 g + 500 g = 5500 g. **Step 2: Determine how much wheat Neena put into the container.** - Neena filled a container that could take 400 g of wheat. **Step 3: Calculate the remaining wheat after filling the container.** - To find out how much wheat is left, subtract the amount of wheat in the container from the total amount of wheat. - Remaining wheat = Total wheat - Wheat in container = 5500 g - 400 g. **Step 4: Perform the subtraction.** - 5500 g - 400 g = 5100 g. **Final Answer:** - The amount of wheat left with Neena is 5100 grams. ---
