Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let “x” be the weight of the bottle and “y” is weight of honey.
We know the total weight of bottle full of honey is 1000 g.
So Equation 1 is x + y = 1000 g
And with half of the honey, we know the total weight is 600g.
Equation 2: x + (y/2) = 600 g
y/2=600 - x
y= 2 (600 - x)
y= 1200 - 2x
We can replace “y” with 1200 - 2x in Equation 1:
x + 1200 - 2x = 1000
x = 200 g
Weight of the bottle is 200 g.
