The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these calculations: ### Step 1: Convert the weights into a consistent unit We have two weights to work with: - Samiara's initial weight of papaya: 8 kg 300 g - Weight given to the tenant: 2 kg 200 g ### Step 2: Convert kilograms to grams To make the subtraction easier, we can convert both weights into grams: - 1 kg = 1000 g - Therefore, - 8 kg 300 g = (8 × 1000) + 300 = 8000 g + 300 g = 8300 g - 2 kg 200 g = (2 × 1000) + 200 = 2000 g + 200 g = 2200 g ### Step 3: Subtract the weight given to the tenant from the initial weight Now we subtract the weight given to the tenant from the initial weight: - Remaining weight = Initial weight - Weight given to tenant - Remaining weight = 8300 g - 2200 g = 6100 g ### Step 4: Convert the remaining weight back to kilograms and grams Now we convert the remaining weight back into kilograms and grams: - 6100 g = 6 kg and 100 g (since 6100 g = 6 × 1000 g + 100 g) ### Final Answer Samiara has 6 kg 100 g of papaya left. ---
