Answer:

weight of the box is increased by 1 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of all mangoes before removing the rotten mangoes be = x units

Now,

5 rotten mangoes are removed each weighing 1 unit

So the weight of mangoes now = x-5 units

Now,

we add 3 fresh mangoes each weighing 2 units or double the weight of a rotten mangoes

So the weight of mangoes now = x-5+2(3)units

= x+1 units

So the weight of the box is increased by 1 unit as compared to the start when it had the rotten mangoes.
