Richa has three bags of different articles . bag a weighs 3kg more than bag b and bag c weighs 5kg more than bag b . The total weight of articles is 23kg. how much does bag a weigh​

Answer 1

Answer:

The weight of bag B is 5kg.

So, weight of bag A= 5+3 = 8kg

And, weight of bag C= 5+5=10kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of bag B be x.

Weight of bag A = x+3

Weight of bag C = x+5

As per question

x+x+3+x+5 = 23

3x+8=23

3x = 23-8 = 15

3x=15

x=15/3

x=5
