Question

A landscaper used 2 1/2 tons of sunburst pebbles, 3 1/4 tons of black polished pebbles, and ton of river pebbles. What was the total weight of the pebbles? 5/8

Answer 1

6.375 tons or 6 3/8 tons

Explanation:

According to Given data, calculation are as follows,

Sunburst pebbles = 2 1/2 tons or 2.5 tons

Black polished pebble = 3 1/4 tons or 3.25 tons

River pebble = 5/8 tons or o.625 ton

So, total weight of pebbles are as follows,

Total weight = 2.5 tons + 3.25 tons + 0.625 ton

= 6.375 tons or 6 3/8 tons

Hence, total weight of pebbles was 6 3/8 tons.
