A) 2.5 tons
B) 19.3 tons
C) 77.2 tons
D) 324,000 tons

Answer 1

C 77.2 tons for four weeks

Answer 2

The answer is C.

Since every week is made up of 7 days, then four weeks will have;

2500 * 7 * 4 = 70,000 kg delivered

If 907.2kg = 1 ton, then to convert 70,000 kg to tons;

70,000/907.2 = 77.16049.....

We round off to  77.2 tons
