Answer: b) they loaded 112356 lbs of cargo
Step-by-step explanation:
When a boat or an object floats in water, the volume of water that it displaces is equivalent to its weight.
When moving into the port, the cargo boat displaced 2200 ft³ of water. Since the density of water is 62.42 lb/ft³ and mass = density × volume, then the mass of the cargo boat on entering the port is
2200 × 62.42 = 137324 lbs
On leaving the port, it displaces 4000 ft³ of water. The mass of the cargo boat on leaving the port is
4000 × 62.42 = 249680 lbs
The difference in both masses is
249680 - 137324 = 112356 lbs
Therefore, they loaded 112356 lbs of cargo
So first you need to find 1/12 of 375. To do this you need to divide 375 by 12. So, your answer will be 31.25 per week.

To answer this question you will find out the total number of cupcakes donated and then calculate the amount of each flavor based on the percentage that is stated.
Here are the steps:
1. 12 x 10 x 12 (12 classes each donating 10 dozen) = 1440
2. 0.55 x 1440 (55% are chocolate) = 792 chocolate
3. 1440 - 792 (the remaining number of cupcakes)=648
4. 1/3(33 1/3%) x 648 = 216 red velvet
5. 1440 - 792 (chocolate) - 216 (red velvet) = 432 vanilla cupcakes
Chocolate-792
Red velvet - 216
Vanilla - 432
