A homeowner needs two loads of gravel for a driveway to their new house. One load of gravel weighs 7 tons and the second load weighs 8,000 pounds what is the total weight of the gravel in tons used for the driveway

Respuesta :

we have that 2000 pounds = 1 ton

Then 8000 pounds equals

[tex]\frac{8000}{2000}=4\text{ tons}[/tex]

Already one load of gravel weighs 7 tons.

Hence in total 4+7 = 11 tons used for the driveway
