Question

Which is a better estimate for the mass of a cat? 

  1. 6grams 
  2. 6kg 
  3. 60grams
  4. 60kg

hintHint:

In the given question, it is asked to write the better estimate for the mass of a cat. The mass of a cat should be more or less around 3 to 8 kg. It should be like that of a new born baby.

The correct answer is: 6kg 


    Step by step solution:
    In the given question, to find the estimate of the mass of the pen shown in the picture, let us first analyze the options given.
    option(a) 6g seems to be a little too less for the weight of a cat.
    option(b) 6 kg could be the weight of that of a cat. It is likely that a pen could weigh around 6 kg.
    option(c)60g is also less. So it cannot be the weight of a cat.
    option(d) 60 kg is very large to be the weight of a cat. 60 kg could be the weight of a human being. A human being is bigger than a cat. So, 60 kg cannot be the age of a cat.
    Hence, we come to a conclusion that option(b) 6kg is the correct option.

    The total capacity represented in the picture is

    Alternatively, the question can be solved as-
    GIVEN-
    Capacity of jug 1 = J1 = 250 ml = (250/1,000) l = 0.25 l ....................... (1l = 1,000 ml)
    Capacity of jug 2 = J2 = 500 ml = (500/1,000) l = 0.5 l ....................... (1l = 1,000 ml)
    Capacity of jug 3 = J3 = 500 ml = (500/1,000) l = 0.5 l ....................... (1l = 1,000 ml)
    Capacity of jug 4 = J4 = 1 l
    Capacity of jug 5 = J5 = 1 l
    TO FIND-
    Total capacity of all the jugs in the given picture.
    SOLUTION-
       Total of jugs in the given picture = J1 + J2 + J3 + J4 + J5
    ∴ Total of jugs in the given picture = 0.25l + 0.5 l + 0.5 l + 1l + 1l
    ∴ Total of jugs in the given picture = 3.25 l
    Final Answer remains the same.

    Alternatively, since the capacity of each of the individual jugs shown in the given picture is the same i.e. 250 ml, we can find the total capacity as-
       Total capacity = 4 * capacity of 1 jug
    ∴ Total capacity = 4 * 250 ml
    ∴ Total capacity = 1,000 ml
    ∴ Total capacity = 1l ........................................ (1l = 1,000 ml)
