Answer 1

Hi friend!

Answer:

Total weight of 7 cylinder filled with gas = 227.5 kg
Gross weight of each cylinder =
$\frac{227.5kg}{7} = 32.5kg$

Weight of gas filled in each cylinder = 14.5kg
Rest of the weight is the weight of empty cylinder.

32.5 - 14.5 = 18

$\bold{Therefore, \: weight \: of \: the \: empty \: gas \: cylinder = \\ \large{\boxed{18kg}}.}$
