A container full of fruit punch weighs 275 oz. The empty container weighs 45 oz. How much does a half-filled container weigh?

A half-filled container will weight 160 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of container with fruit punch = 275 oz

weight of container excluding fruit punch = 45 oz

Weight of fruit punch = Weight of container with fruit punch - weight of container excluding fruit punch   =  275 oz -  45 oz  =  230 oz

Thus, when container is full, it contains 230 oz.

When container will be half full, it will contain half of 230 oz

half of 230 oz = 1/2 * 230 oz = 115 oz

Thus,

a half-filled container will weight = weight of container + half of the capacity of container(115 oz) = (45 + 115) oz = 160 oz.

Thus,  a half-filled container will weight 160 oz.
