Question 186
A loading tempo can carry 482 boxes of biscuits weighing 15 kg each. Whereas a van can carry 518 boxes each of the same weight. Find the total weight that can be carried by both the vehicles.
Total number of boxes in both vehicles = 482 + 518 = 1000
The weight of each box = 15 kg
Total weight that can be carried by both the vehicles = 15 x 1000 kg = 15000 kg
Hence, the total weight that can be carried by both the vehicles is 15000 kg.
