Tim has 5² boxes. There are 5¹ kg of apples apple in each box. When empty, a box weighs 5-² kg. How many kilograms of apples does Michael have in all ? PLZZZ !!!! HELPPP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Weight of apple = total box - weight of boxes ok?
Weight of apple = total weight (box and apples) - weight of boxes
I'm confused @superdavesuper
Sorry @Halia I just re-read ur Q n I was confused too! lol The right answer is from this "Tim has 5² boxes. There are 5¹ kg of apples apple in each box" So each box has 5 kg of apples and there are 5² = 5x5 = 25 boxes. Total weight of apples = weight of apples in 1 box x total no. of boxes
Alrighty @superdavesuper so my final answer is 25 kg ?
errr @Halia not exactly.... Plz follow this again: " So each box has 5 kg of apples and there are 5² = 5x5 = 25 boxes. Total weight of apples = weight of apples in 1 box x total no. of boxes"
But the total weight isn't given
@superdavesuper
correct - total weight is not given n u need to calculate it :) so what is weight of apples in 1 box x total no. of boxes?
25 kg ??
@superdavesuper
weight of apples in 1 box = 5kg
there are 5² = 5x5 = 25 boxes so the ans is....
5
I'm not sure
25x5 = ?
125
BINGO - u got it :)
Alrighty THANKKKKK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH !!! FOR your help :) really appreciated it As you can see math isn't my strength ); so I'm not very good at it
Nah u work it out urself, @Halia Keep trying n u will get better....trust me ;) n there are plenty of helpful ppl on OS here!
