Since 1 packet of rice is 14.8 kg heavier than 1 box, first find the additional weight of 5 packets of rice.
14.8 multiply by 5 = 74kg
We know the total weight of box and rice to be 103.7kg.
So, by using 103.7 kg - 74 kg = 29.7 kg
This is the weight of 5 packets of rice and 1 box (6 items) , assuming that they weigh the same now.
A) mass of 1 packet of rice = 29.7 Divide by 6 = 4.95kg
4.95 + 14.8 = 19.75kg
B) mass of box is 4.95 kg
14.8 multiply by 5 = 74kg
We know the total weight of box and rice to be 103.7kg.
So, by using 103.7 kg - 74 kg = 29.7 kg
This is the weight of 5 packets of rice and 1 box (6 items) , assuming that they weigh the same now.
A) mass of 1 packet of rice = 29.7 Divide by 6 = 4.95kg
4.95 + 14.8 = 19.75kg
B) mass of box is 4.95 kg
