Practicing Success
The average weight of A, B and C is 65 kg. If the average weight of A and B is 63.5 kg, and the average weight of A and Cis 67.5 kg, then the weight of A (in kg) is: |
67 60 68 65 |
67 |
A + B + C = 65 x 3 ------ 1 A + B = 63.5 x 2 ----------2 A + C = 2 x 67.5 ----------3 From Equation 2 & 3 2A + B + C = 262 B + C = 262 - 2A -------- 4 From Equation 1 & 4 A + 262 - 2A = 195 A = 67 |
