Answer
Find out the What is the total weight of the items already packed .
To prove
As given
The luggage allowance on the flight is 20 kg per person.
The list of the weights of some items already packed in one of the suitcases.
[tex]Toothbrush - 95 g\ ,Toiletries - 1.4 kg\ ,Shoes = 3\frac{1}{8}\ ,Beach towel - 0.6 kg[/tex]
Clothes - 8580 g
[tex]As\ 1g=\frac{1}{1000}\ kg[/tex]
Now convert 95 g
[tex]95g=\frac{95}{1000}\ kg[/tex]
= 0.095 kg
Thus Toothbrush weight = 0.095 kg
Now convert 8580 g
[tex]8580g=\frac{8580}{1000}\ kg[/tex]
= 8.58 kg
Thus clothes weight = 8.58 kg
Now
[tex]Shoes\ weight = 3 \frac{1}{8}\ kg[/tex]
[tex]Shoes\ weight=\frac{25}{8}\ kg[/tex]
Shoes weight = 3.125 kg (approx)
Thus
Total weight of the items = Toothbrush weight + clothes weight + Toiletries weight + Beach towel weight + Shoes weight
= 0.095 kg + 8.58 kg + 1.4 kg + 0.6 kg + 3.125kg
= 13.8 kg
Therefore the total weight of the items already packed is 13.8 kg .
