Question

Allen weighs 44 kg. Miller weighs half as much as Allen, and James weighs 3 kg more than Miller. What is their weight all together?

Answer 1

Answer:

91

Step-by-step explanation:

we will call Allen : A

we will call MIller: M

we will call James: J

The problem tells us we have three answers we need to find and it only gives us one of those answers. We can use that to find the other needed answers. We will start with answering the first one.

A = 44

We know from the given A = 44 so miller is half the weight we divide by 2.

A/2 = M

44/2 = 22    so we know that M is = to 22

then the question tells us james is three more than miller. we know from solving miller is 22.

M + 3 = J

22+3 = J

J=25

then the final question asks to add all of them together

A + M + J = Total weight

44 + 22 + 25 = Total Weight

91 = Total Weight
