Solution
Total weight of the watermelon = 4.25 kg
Weight of the watermelon given to the children = 1 kg 750 g
= 1 kg + 750 g
= 1 kg +`750/1000` kg
= 1 kg + 0.75 kg
= 1.75 kg
∴ Weight of the watermelon left with her
= Total weight of the watermelon − Weight of the watermelon given to the children
= 4.25 kg − 1.75 kg
= 2.5 kg
3 12
4. 2 5
−1. 7 5
2. 5 0
Thus, the weight of watermelon left with Sujata is 2.5 kg.
