Answer 1

Answer:

50.25kgs

Step-by-step explanation:

let weights of Ayush be A and Abhishek be B

A:B = 6:11

A=6x

B = 11x

A+B =17x

B increases by 25%

B=11x × (1+25%)

=11×1.25x = 13.75x

total weight increases by 40%

= 17x×(1+40%)

=23.8x

23.8x = 119

x= 5

B is 13.75×5 = 68.75

A is 119 -68.75 =50.25

hope this helps
