Answer:

The full steel tire is 1.76 pounds and the lighter wheel is 1.54 pounds

Explanation:

To find how many pounds each tire is, divide the weight in grams by 453.592

Full steel tire:

800/453.592 = 1.76 pounds

Lighter wheel:

700/453.592 = 1.54 pounds

So, the full steel tire is 1.76 pounds and the lighter wheel is 1.54 pounds
