Michaela caught 3 fish, which weigh a total of 19 1/2 pounds. One fish weighs 7 5/8 pounds and another weighs 5 3/4 pounds. How
much does the third fish weigh?
1 answer:
Let x be the weight of first fish
y be the weight of second fish
z be the third fish
x = 7 5/8 pounds
y = 5 3/4 pounds
z = ?
19 1/2 = 7 5/8 + 5 3/4 + z
z = 6 1/8 pounds
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
