Question

Carl is boarding a plane. He has 2 checked bags of equal weight and a backpack that weighs 4kg The total weight of Carl's baggage is 35kg

Answer 1

15.5 Kg

Explanation:

Here,

let the weight of a bag be 'x'

so, weight of 2 bags = 2x

now,

Total weight = 35 kg

2x + 4kg = 35kg

2x= 35kg - 4kg

2x = 31kg

x = 31kg

2

x= 15.5 Kg
