Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a question on ratio
We have a b and c which are on different ratios but their sum is 203 kg
We can arrange them in such a way that we can find the ratio of the three proportionally
a : b : c
2 : 3
4 : 3
We can therefore determine their ratios by cross multiplying that is
2 × 4 = 8
3 × 4 = 12
3 × 3 = 9
Therefore the new ratios are
a : b : c
8 12 9
The total weight is the sum of all the ratios
8 + 12 + 9 = 29
29 is equal to 203 kg
If 29 = 203
12?
12 × 203 ÷ 29 = 84
84 kg.
