Answer

Weight of apples = 4 kg 90 g

= 4 kg + 901000\dfrac{90}{1000} kg = 4 kg + 0.090 kg = 4.090 kg

Weight of grapes = 2 kg 60 g

= 2 kg + 601000\dfrac{60}{1000} kg = 2 kg + 0.060 kg = 2.060 kg

Weight of mangoes = 5 kg 300 g

= 5 kg + 3001000\dfrac{300}{1000} kg = 5 kg + 0.300 kg = 5.300 kg

Total weight = 4.090 + 2.060 + 5.300

Writing in column form and adding:

+4.0902.060+ 5.30011.450\begin{array}{r} \phantom{+}4.090 \ 2.060 \ +\space 5.300 \ \hline 11.450 \end{array}

Hence, the total weight of the fruits bought is 11.450 kg or 11 kg 450 g.
