Question

the table is 19 lb. 4 oz. the chair is 11 lb. 9oz. compare to the table, how much heavier are the two chairs?​

Answer 1

3.875 lb

Explanation:

Weight of table = 19lb 4 oz = 19-4/16 lb = 19.25 lb

Weight of each chair = 11 lb 9 oz = 11-9/16 lb = 11.5625 lb

Weight of 2 chairs = 2 x 11.5625 = 23.125 lb

Difference in weight between 2 chairs and one table

= 23.125 - 19.25

= 3.875 lb
