A horse that weighs 1 1/4 tons is carrying a 110 pound person, a 15 ounce water bottle, and a 16 1/2 pound basket what is the weight of the horse, rider, and items in total?

2635.875pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Converting all the units to pounds for unit consistency. Let's convert

1 1/4tons horse weight and 15ounce water bottle to pounds.

According to the conversion;

1 ton = 2000pounds

1 1/4 tons = (2000×5/4)pounds = 2500pounds

Similarly for the conversion of ounce to pounds;

1 ounce = 0.625pound

15 ounces of water bottle = (0.625×15)pounds

= 9.375pounds

The total weight of the horse, rider, and items in total will give;

2500pounds horse + 110pounds person + 9.375pounds water bottle + 16.5pounds basket

= 2635.875pounds

i think the amount would be $140.62

the 8 in 8,420 is in the thousands place so it's value is 8 thousand.

the 8 in 6,870 is in the hundreds place so it's value is 8 hundred.

divide 8000 by 800 to find the answer:

8000 / 800 = 10

the 8 in 8,420 is 10 times greater than the 8 in 6,870
