37 pumpkins each weighs 48 ounces
Distributed into 3 baskets

The weight of basket A is 3 times the weight of basket C

Basket B is twice the weight of basket C

Basket C is 140 ounces empty


What is the total weight of basket C with pumpkins in it

Sagot :

crisforp
37 * 48 = 3 * (c  - 140 )+ 2 *(c  - 140 ) + ( c - 140 ) =>
37 * 48 = 6 * ( c - 140 ) =>
37 * 48 / 6 = c - 140 =>
37 * 8 = c - 140 =>
296 = c - 140 => 
c = 296 + 140 =>
c = 436 ounces.
