Answer:

2,784 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

2900/100=29 (that is 1% of the 2900)

29*4=116 (that is 4% of 2900; how much weight they lost)

2900-116=2784 (current weight)

Answer: C. There are four groups of three tens and six ones

Step-by-step explanation:

From the options,

A. Three groups each have three tens and 4 ones.

Three tens and 4 ones equal: = (3 × 10) + (4 × 1) = 30 + 4 = 34

Therefore, 34 ÷ 3 is incorrect.

B. There are three groups of five tens and 9 ones in each group.

Five tens and 9 ones will be equal to:

= (5 × 10) + (9 × 1)

= 50 + 9 = 59

Therefore, 59 ÷ 3 is incorrect

C. There are four groups of three tens and six ones.

Three tens and six ones equal:

= (3 × 10) + (6 × 1)

= 30 + 6 = 36

Therefore, 36 ÷ 4 is correct

D. There are three groups of five tens and nine ones in each group.

Five tens and nine ones will be equal to:

= (5 × 10) + (9 × 1)

= 50 + 9 = 59

Therefore, 59 ÷ 3 is incorrect

Therefore, the correct option is C.
