Respuesta :

Answer:

0.3kg(300g)

Step-by-step explanation:

£1=100p

£5=500p

5p=3g

500p=x

x=500*3/5

x=300g

Step-by-step explanation:

£5 in pence is 500p

The number of 5p coins in 500p is:

500/5 = 100 (5p coins)

each 5p coin weighs 3g

therefore the £5 weighs in grams:

3x100 = 300g

To change to Kg: 300/1000 = 0.3 Kg
