Let the number of bags that he would have been used to put 3 kg of apples be x. Thus the number of bags that would be used to put 2kgs will therefore be (x+9), hence the total number of kgs the bags will hold will be given by: 3*x=3x kgs 2(x+9)=(2x+18) kgs since the total weights are the same then: 2x+18=3x hence 18=3x-2x 18=x thus the number of bags required to put 3 kgs of apples will be 18. Thus the total Kgs of apples was: 3x =3*18 =54 kgs
<span>If
Victor were to put apples in bags so that there were 2 kg in each, then
he would use 9 more bags than if he were to place 3 kg of apples in
each bag. How many kg of apples were there? </span> <span> 3x kgs 2 (x + 9) = (2x + 18) kgs 2x + 18 = 3x
