Question

Sam is delivering two refrigerators that each weigh 105 kilograms. There is an elevator with a weight limit of 1,000 pounds. Can he take both refrigerator on the elevator in one trip? (1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds )

Answer 1

Yes, he can.

Explanation:

105 plus 105 is 210 and 210 times 2.2 is 462. Since 462 is less than 1,000, he will be able to take them in one trip.

P.S. His weight could affect this too. If his weight is more than 538 pounds, he may not be able to take it all on one trip.

Answer 2

Yes he can. Because each refrigerator is 231 pounds. So 2 of them would be 462. So yes he would be able to make it in one trip unless Sam is over 600 pounds. Lol. Hope this helps.
