Answer 1

Answer:

HEY MATE!!!! HOPE YOU FIND THIS HELPFUL.

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of box 2 = x kg

Weight of box 1 =  $\frac{3}{2}$ kg + x

Weight of box 3 = $\frac{41}{4}$ kg + x

ATQ - (x) + ($\frac{3}{2}$ + x) + ($\frac{41}{4}$ + x) = $\frac{219}{4}$

          x +  $\frac{3}{2}$ + x + $\frac{41}{4}$ + x = $\frac{219}{4}$

          3x +  $\frac{6 + 41}{4}$= $\frac{219}{4}$

          3x + $\frac{47}{4}$ = $\frac{219}{4}$

          3x = $\frac{219}{4}$ - $\frac{47}{4}$

          3x = $\frac{172}{4}$

          x = $\frac{172}{4}$ ÷ 3

          x =  $\frac{172}{4}$ × $\frac{1}{3}$

          x = $\frac{172}{12}$ = $\frac{43}{3}$

Weight of box 1 = $\frac{3}{2}$ + $\frac{43}{3}$ = $\frac{95}{6}$
