<h2>Answer:</h2>

The smallest possible total weight of Tom's toys is:

210 grams

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

It is given that:

Tom has 8 toys each toy weighs either 20 grams or 40 grams or 50 grams.

Also, he has a different number of toys (at least one) of each weight.

Now, the smallest possible weight of Tom's toy is such that:

He has one toy of 50 grams , one of 40 grams and the other's are of smallest weight i.e. 20 grams.

This means he has 6 toys of 20 grams.

One of 40 grams.

One of 50 grams.

Hence,

Total weight= 20×6+40+50

i.e.

Total weight= 120+90

i.e.

Total weight= 210 grams.
