2. 48000 gram
3. 51000 gram
4. 55000 gram

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : 47000 gram

Given:

Weight of four boxes are respectively 10 kg 900 gram, 15 kg 300 gram, 12 kg 500 gram, and 8 kg 300 gram.

Formula Used:

1 kg = 1000 gram

Calculation:

As, the weight of the boxes are 10 kg 900 gram, 15 kg 300 gram, 12 kg 500 gram and 8 kg 300 gram 

So, sum of the weight of boxes = (10.900)kg + (15.300)kg + (12.500)kg + (8.300)kg

= 47 kg

And, as 1 kg = 100 gram

So, 47 kg = 47 × 1000 = 47000 gram

∴ Total of 47000 grams is kept in the 4 boxes.
