Ten boxes contain cans of different weights. how could you redistribute the cans so each box weighs the same?

total all the weights by the x's on the chart

 total weight = 20 pounds

 20/10 = 2

 so you could put 2 pounds in each box.

Hence, we must put 2 pounds in each box.

It is given that ten boxes contain cans of different weight.

Weight in pounds       Number of box

   1                                  1

   1.25                             4

   2                                  2

   2.5                               2

   5                                   1

Number of boxes=1+4+2+2+1=10

Total weight of all boxes=

For each box to have equal weight we calculate it as:

Total weight/Number of boxes

=20/10

=2 pounds.

Hence, we must put 2 pounds in each box.

idk man good luck man

i believe it's a.

i'm not sure on this one, most likely correct.
