Each train carried 64141 kg of flour and each truck carried 9163 kg of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of kg of flour carried by each train be 'a'

Let the no. of kg of flour carried by each truck be 'b'

Total flour = 403172 kg

No. Of trains = 5

No. of trucks = 9

a = 7(b)

5a + 9b = 403172

5(7b) + 9b = 403172

35b + 9b = 403172

44b = 403172

b = 403172/44

b = 9163

Each truck carried 9163 kg of flour.

a = 7b

a = 7(9163)

a = 64141

Each train carried 64141 kg of flour.
