Michael purchased 515 kilograms of sugar and then decided to purchase another 312 ​ kilograms of the sugar. How many pounds did Michael purchase altogether? Assume 1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds. Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box.

Respuesta :

515 kilograms plus 312 kilograms = 827 kilograms. since 1 kilograms is 2.2 pounds than 827x 2.2 =1819.4

Total amount(in kilogram) of sugar purchased by Michael = 515 kg

Another amount(in kilogram) of sugar purchased by Michael= 312 kg

Total amount of sugar purchased by Michael

= 515 kg + 312 kg

= 827 kg

Now, we have to find the total amount of sugar purchased by Michael in pounds.

Since 1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds

Therefore, total amount of sugar purchased in pounds= [tex] 827 \times 2.2 [/tex] pounds

= 1819.4 pounds

So, Michael purchased 1819.4 pounds of sugar.
