Question

A container and 6 lemons have a total weight of 4/5 pound. two lemons have a total weight of 1/10 pound. Find the weight of the container if all the lemons have the same weight.

Answer 1

4/5 = 3(1/10) * x
becuase 1/10 is already two so 6/2 = 3
4/5= 3/10 * x
x= 3/10 - 4/5
x= 3/10 - 8/10
x= - 5/10
x= 1/2
