Number y is increased by 100 percent, which can be denoted by y(2), and then decreased by 20 percent, which will further make it y(2)(.8). So the number is 1.6y. Really, you can use any variable, and if you multiply it by 1.6 you will get x

Answer:

The weight of square is 8 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The weight of the circle = 2 grams

The weight of the triangle = 4 grams

We need to find the weight of the square. Let the weight of each square is w.

On LHS, 2 circles and 4 squares are there.

On RHS, 2 squares, 4 triangles and 2 circles are there.

For a balanced position,

Weight on LHS = Weight on RHS

2\times \text{weight of circle}+4\times \text{weight of squares}=2\times \text{weight of squares}+4\times \text{weight of triangles }+2\times \text{weight of circle}2(2)+4(w) = 2(w) + 4(4) +2(2)

4 + 4w = 2w +16 +4

4w-2w = 20-4

2w = 16

w = 8

So, weight of square is 8 grams.
