Question

14 T 1,000 lb. + 2 T 1,000

Answer 1

The answer will be 17 tons.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

14 T 1,000 lb. + 2 T 1,000 lb.

As we know that

`1\ ton=2000\ lbs\\\\14\ tons=2000* 14\ lbs\\\\14\ tons=28000\ lbs`

So, 14 T 1,000 lb. is given by

`28000\ lbs+1000\ lbs\\\\=29000\ lbs`

Similarly,

`1\ ton=2000\ lbs\\\\2\Tons=2* 2000\ lbs\\\\2\ tons=4000\ lbs`

so,

2T 1,000 lb. is given by

`4000+1000\\\\=5000\ lbs`

So, 14 T 1,000 lb. + 2 T 1,000 lbs is given by

`29000+5000\\\\=34000\ lbs\\\\=(34000)/(2000)\\\\=17\ tons`

Hence, the answer will be 17 tons.
