1. Box A. weighs : 5/2kg more than box B and Box C weight 21/2 kg more than box b the total weight of box are 48 3/4 kg how many kg does box a weight​

Answer 1

Answer:

Weight of box A = 38.41 Kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀According to the Given Statement

Let the weight of box B = x kg

• weight of box B = x kg

Now it is given that the weight of box A is 5/2 kg more than weight of box A . It means that weight of box A = x + 5/2 kg

• Weight of box A = x + 5/2 kg

And also it is given that the weight of box C is 21/2 kg more than box B . It means that weight of box C = x + 21/2

• Weight of box C = x + 21/2 kg

And it is also given that the total weight of box = 483/4 kg.

This implies that

Weight of box A + box B + box C = Total weight of box

Substitute the value we get.

→ x + 5/2 + x + x +21/2 = 483/4 kg

→ 3x + 5/2 + 21/2 = 483/4 kg

→ 3x + 26/2 = 483/4

→ 3x = 483/4 - 26/2

→ 3x = 483-52/4

→ 3x = 431/4

→ x = 431/12

→ x = 35.91 kg

Therefore, the weight of box B is 35.91 kg

Weight of Box A = 35.91 + 5/2 = 35.91 + 2.5 = 38.41 Kg

weight of box C = 35.91+ 21/2 = 35.91 + 10.5 = 46 .41 kg.

Answer 2

Suppose wt of box B = X

x + 5/2 + x + x +21/2 = 483/4 kg

=> 3x + 5/2 + 21/2 = 483/4 kg

=> 3x + 26/2 = 483/4

=> 3x = 483/4 - 26/2

=> 3x = 483-52/4

=> 3x = 431/4

=> x = 431/12

=> x = 35.91 kg

WT OF BOX A = 35.91 + 2.5 = 38.41 KG.
