Answer 1

Answer:

The weight of box and pocking material $=13$ pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of box and packing material $=x$

weight of package $=192$ pounds

total weight $=205$ pound

$x+192=205$

Subtract both side by $192$

$x+192-192=205-192\\x+0=13\\x=13$

Hence weight of box and packing material $=13$ pound
