Apineapple is 7 times as heavy as an orange. the pineapple also weighs 870 grams more then the orange. what is he total weight in grams for the pineapple and orange?

Weight of Pineapple = ( Wp) = 1015 grams

Weight of Orange     = (Wo) =  145 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as,

Weight of Pineapple = 7 times Weight of Orange              ...Eq 1

Also,

Weight of Pineapple = Weight of Orange + 870 grams          .....Eq 2

Now let, Weight of Pineapple = Wp

And         Weight of Orange    = Wo

From Eq 1 and Eq 2 ,

7 times Weight of Orange = Weight of Orange + 870 grams

Or, 7 × Wo = Wo + 870 grams

Or, 7× Wo - Wo = 870 grams

Or, 6 Wo = 870 grams

∴ Wo = = 145

i.e Weight of orange = 145 grams

And from eq 2,

Weight of Pineapple = Weight of Orange + 870 grams

i.e Weight of Pineapple = 145 grams + 870 grams

or, Weight of Pineapple = 1015 grams

Hence, Weight of Pineapple = 1015 grams and Weight of orange = 145 gm
