Answer:

2.6 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

let's set a few variables for this one.

weight of the empty container: a

weight of the goods: b

the given information:

  • b = 4a
  • b - a = 7.8kg

we can replace b with 4a as b = 4a.

here are the rest of the steps to simplify this.

4a - a = 7800g

3a = 7800g

a = (7800/3)g

a = 2600g

a = 2.6 kg
