Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Reading Scales worksheet
Let me carefully examine each scale to read the weight in grams.

First, I’ll look at the top row of three scales (all round analog scales labeled “grams”):

1. Left scale (pears): The needle points just past 200 — it’s at 250 g.
2. Middle scale (potatoes): The needle points straight down to 500 g.
3. Right scale (strawberries): The needle points to 300 g.

Now the middle row (three blue kitchen scales, also analog):

4. Left blue scale: Needle points just past 100 — looks like 120 g? Wait, let me double-check the markings. The dial goes 0–1000 in increments of 100, and the needle is between 100 and 200, closer to 100. Actually, looking more closely: the small tick marks are every 20 g. The needle is at the 3rd tick after 100 → 100 + 60 = 160 g? Hmm — but the problem likely expects round numbers. Let me zoom in on this one.

Wait — the instruction says: *“Draw a line from the scale to the correct weight in grams”* and then shows three blue scales with answer choices: 45g, 95g, 850g.

So only those three weights correspond to the bottom three blue scales — not all six.

Let me re-read:
The first six scales (top two rows) ask: *“Read the scales below and write the weight below:”* — so six blanks (each with “g”).

Then a new instruction: *“Draw a line from the scale to the correct weight in grams”*, followed by three blue scales and three weight boxes: 45g, 95g, 850g.

So there are two parts:
- Part 1: 6 scales → fill in 6 weights (in grams)
- Part 2: match 3 blue scales to 3 given weights

But the user only asks to “solve the problem accurately”, and the final answer format expects a single answer — likely the matching part, since the weights are provided as options.

Let me zoom in on the three bottom blue scales and their dials to read them precisely.
