Please Give Me Answer

Answer 1

Answer:

The given details are total weight of three boxes is 60 ½ kg = 121/2 kg

let the weight of box A be x kg

Weight of box B be x + 7/2 kg

Weight of box C be x + 7/2 + 16/3 kg

So,

x + x + 7/2 + x + 77/2 + 16/3 = 121/2

3x = 121/2 – 7/2 – 7/2 – 16/3

By taking LCM for 2 and 3 is 6

3x = (363 – 21 – 21 – 32)/6

3x = 289/6

x = 289/18

∴ The weight of box A is 289/18
