Sure, let's address the given problem step-by-step to find the answer:
1. Determine the weight of the gourd:
The weight of the gourd is given as [tex]\( 4 \frac{3}{4} \)[/tex] kg, which is a mixed number. To solve this, we need to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction or a decimal.
2. Convert mixed number to a decimal:
A mixed number consists of a whole number and a fraction. To convert [tex]\( 4 \frac{3}{4} \)[/tex] to a decimal:
[tex]\[
4 \frac{3}{4} = 4 + \frac{3}{4}
\][/tex]
Next, we convert the fraction [tex]\(\frac{3}{4}\)[/tex] to a decimal. We know:
[tex]\[
\frac{3}{4} = 0.75
\][/tex]
So,
[tex]\[
4 + 0.75 = 4.75
\][/tex]
Thus, the weight of the gourd is [tex]\(4.75\)[/tex] kg.
3. Cost of the gourd:
The problem does not provide the cost per kilogram of the gourd. Hence, with the given information, we cannot determine the total cost of the gourd.
To summarize:
- The weight of the gourd is [tex]\(4.75\)[/tex] kg.
- The cost per kilogram is not specified, so the total cost of the gourd cannot be calculated without this information.
Hence, the final answer for the weight of the gourd is [tex]\(4.75\)[/tex] kg.
