Question

Total weight of 3 bags of rice is 8 kg 950g.weight of bag A is 2kg950g.If weight of bag B is 900gm more than the weight of bag C.then find the difference between the weights of bag A and bag B.

Answer 1

Answer:

B = 3kg 450 g ; C = 2kg 550 g

Step-by-step explanation:

total weight = 8kg 950 g = 8950 g

weight of bag A= 2 kg 900 g = 2900 g

weight of bag C = x g

weight of bad B = x + 900g

weight of bag A and B = ??

total weight = weight of bag A + weight of bag B + weight of bag C

      8950 g =     2900 g           +         (x + 900 g)   +   x g

      8950 g =      3800 g           +       2x

8950-3800= 2x

     5100 g  = 2x

     5100/ 2 g = x

                  x = 2550 g

       weight of bag C = x g = 2550 g = 2kg 550 g

       weight of bag  B = x+ 900 g = 2550 + 900g = 3450 g = 3kg 450 g
