Solution
We know 1 kg = 1000 g
Thus, 2 kg = 2 ×1000 g = 2000 g
Following are the different ways in which we can make the two weights equal -
- 1 kg + 500 g + 500 g = 2000 g
- 1 kg + 500 g + 250 g + 250 g = 2000 g
- 1 kg + 500 g + 250 g + 200 g + 50 g = 2000 g
- 1 kg + 500 g + 200 g + 200 g + 100 g = 2000 g
- 1 kg + 250 g + 250 g + 250 g + 200 g + 50 g = 2000 g
We can make five different combinations to get 2 kg weight.
