Five bags of peanuts have a mass of 1.375kg and two bags of walnuts have a mass of 540 g. Which has a greater mass, one bag of peanuts or one bag of walnuts?

First, let's find out the mass of one bag of peanuts:

1.375 kg is the mass of 5 bags of peanuts. To find the mass of one bag, we divide 1.375 kg by 5.

1.375 kg / 5 = 0.275 kg

So, one bag of peanuts has a mass of 0.275 kg.

Next, let's find out the mass of one bag of walnuts:

540 g is the mass of 2 bags of walnuts. To find the mass of one bag, we divide 540 g by 2.

540 g / 2 = 270 g

To compare the mass of the peanuts and the walnuts, we need to convert the mass of the walnuts to kilograms because the mass of the peanuts is given in kilograms.

1 kg = 1000 g, so 270 g = 0.27 kg

So, one bag of walnuts has a mass of 0.27 kg.

Comparing the two, one bag of walnuts (0.27 kg) has a greater mass than one bag of peanuts (0.275 kg).
