Question

A large truck carrying two riding lawn mowers weighs a total of 6,000 pounds. Each riding lawn mower weighs 600 pounds. The diver returns both riding lawn mowers to the store and replaces them with four push mowers that weigh 50 pounds each. What is the total weight (in pounds) of the truck including the 4 push mowers?

Answer 1

just as the person above me says 5,000 is the answer

Answer 2

5000

Explanation:

600 x 2 = 1200 (weight of riding lawn mowers)

50 x 4 = 200 (weight of push mowers)

Total weight of truck 6,000 - 1,200 (2 riding mowers) + 200 (4 push mowers) = 5,000 pounds
