Question

John and Drake together weigh 75 Kg 450 g. If John weighs 38 kg 275 g, what is Drake's weight?

• A. 38 kg 450 g
• B. 37 kg 175 g
• C. 113 kg 825 g
• D. 40 kg 150 g

Answer 1

The correct option is B 37 kg 175 g

Sum of weights of John and Drake = 75 kg 450 g
John’s weight = 38 kg 275 g
Therefore, Drake’s weight = (75 kg 450 g) - (38 kg 275 g)
= (75 - 38) kg (480 - 275) g
= 37 kg 175 g
