A box containing nails weigh 32.25kgs.the empty box weighs 2.25kg.if @ nail weighs 60gms.how many nails are in the box?

Covert everything to kg.

2.25 + .06n = 32.25

Solve for n.

To find out how many nails are in the box, we need to subtract the weight of the empty box from the total weight of the box containing nails. Here's how you can calculate it:

1. Convert the weight of the nails from grams to kilograms: 60 grams = 0.06 kilograms.
2. Subtract the weight of the empty box from the total weight: 32.25 kilograms - 2.25 kilograms = 30 kilograms.
3. Divide the total weight of the nails by the weight of each nail: 30 kilograms ÷ 0.06 kilograms/nail = 500 nails.

Therefore, there are 500 nails in the box.
