When loaded with bricks, a lorry has a mass of 11600kg. If the mass of the bricks is three times that the mass of the empty lorry, find the mass of the bricks.

8700kg

Step-by-step explanation:

lorry + bricks = 11600kg

bricks = 3(mass of empty lorry)

lorry mass is x

there for bricks = 3x

x+3x = 11600

4x =11600

x= 2900kg

mass of bricks = 3(2900)

=8700kg

7.25

step-by-step explanation:

we know that 7 equals to 7.0. we also know that 1/4=0.25. so we can add the two together and we get 7.25
