Question

What will be the total weight of 10 poles each of the same weight ?
I. One-fourth of the weight of a pole is 5 kilograms.
II. The total weight of three poles is 20 kilograms more than the total weight of two poles.
A) If the data in statement I alone are sufficient to answer the question B) If the data in statement II alone are sufficient answer the question C) If the data either in I or II alone are sufficient to answer the question

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

From I, we conclude that weight of each pole = (4x5) kg = 20 kg.

So, total weight of 10 poles = (20 x 10) kg = 200 kg.

From II, we conclude that:

Weight of each pole = (weight of 3 poles) - (weight of 2 poles) = 20 kg.

So, total weight of 10 pojes = (20 x 10) kg = 200 kg.
