A beekeeper keeps a hive with 200 worker bees. If each worker bee makes 0.02 kg of honey in a month, how much honey do all the worker bees produce together in that month?
Answer
4 kg
The correct answer is 4 kg — Hence the correct choice is 4 kg.
Step-by-step solution
- Each worker bee produces 0.02 kg of honey.
- The hive has 200 worker bees.
- Multiply 200 by 0.02 to get total honey: 200 × 0.02 = 4.
- So the hive produces 4 kg of honey.
- Hence the correct choice is 4 kg.
Common mistake: Treating 0.02 as 0.2 and over‑multiplying
Concept tested: Honey production by bees
