If 5 potatoes together have a mass of 1 kilogram and 8 pears together have a mass of 1200 grams which has the greater mass, a potatoe or a pear?

Respuesta :

1 kg = 1000g
If 5 potatoes weigh 1000g then 1 potato weighs 1000/5 = 200g

If 8 pears weigh 1200g then 1 pear weighs 1200/8 = 150g

Therefor a potato has a greater mass when compared with a pear
