Mr Frank has 1.03 kilograms of fertilizer for the plants in his nursery. He wants every plant to get 95 mg of fertilizer.
What is the number of plants he could fertilize with that amount?
1030/95 = ____
1.03 kg = 1030 grams = 1,030,000 milligrams(mg).
95mg = 95 milligrams.
1,030,000/95 = 10,842 plants.
How much fertilizer will he have left over?
mg (just type the number)
10,842.1053 Plants.
0.1053plants * 95mg/plant = 10 mg left.
To calculate the number of plants Mr. Frank can fertilize, we need to divide the total amount of fertilizer (1.03 kilograms) by the amount of fertilizer needed per plant (95 mg).
First, we need to convert the given quantities into the same unit. We know that 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams, and 1 gram is equal to 1000 milligrams. So, 1.03 kilograms can be converted into milligrams as follows:
1.03 kilograms = 1.03 * 1000 * 1000 milligrams = 1,030,000 milligrams.
Now, we divide the total amount of fertilizer (1,030,000 milligrams) by the amount of fertilizer needed per plant (95 milligrams) to find the number of plants Mr. Frank can fertilize:
Number of plants = 1,030,000 milligrams / 95 milligrams = 10,842.1 plants.
Since we cannot have a fraction of a plant, we round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, Mr. Frank can fertilize a maximum of 10,842 plants with 1.03 kilograms of fertilizer.
