A total of 25 boxes are stacked one above the other and the total weight of the boxes is 225 kg. What will the average weight of the boxes be if 8 more boxes are stacked given that the weight of all the boxes are equal? Correct Answer 9
Total 25 boxes are stacked one above another and weight of each box be x
∴ According to question
25x = 225
⇒ x = 9
∴ The weight of each box is 9kg
Now, 8 more boxes are stacked
⇒ Total weight of the boxes 225 + (9 × 8) = 297 kg
∴ Average weight of total boxes = 297/33 = 9 kg
