The expression to start with would be

(3x60)+(4x120)

3x60=180

4x120=480

Now we add.

180+480=660

hope this helps! :3

Answer:

Total weight = 660 grams

Explanation:

Given information,

→ 1 goldfish = 60 g

→ 1 tortoise = 120 g

Then the total weight will be,

→ 3 goldfish + 4 tortoises

→ 3(60) + 4(120)

→ 180 + 480

→ 660 g

Hence, total weight is 660 g.
