Tasha takes a trip to an orchard to pick apples with her friends. Tasha and her friends combine their apples and put them on a scale. The weight of the apples is more than the scale can measure.

Which will give Tasha and her friends the MOST accurate weight of the apples?

• Weigh an empty box then put the apples in the box.

• Adjust the scale so it shows a measurement of the apples.

• Divide the apples into smaller sets and weigh each set separately.

• Weigh one apple and multiply the weight by the number of apples.
