PLEASE I NEED HELP WITH THIS IM SO CONFUSED AND I KNOW IM DUMB I ONLY HAVE 5 MINUTES LEFT!!!!

Answer 1

35.625 pounds

Explanation:

First, find the weight of the other truck by multiplying 30 by 3/16:

30(3/16)

= 5.625

Then, add this to the weight of the other truck:

30 + 5.625

= 35.625

So, if both trucks were combined, the weight will be 35.625 pounds
