• A box contains 90 mts each of 100 gms and 100 bolts each of 150 gms. If the entire box weighs 35.5 kg., and the weight of the empty box is x ,
  then
  90*0.100 + 100*0.150 +x = 35.5
  9.0+ 15.0 +x = 35.5
  x= 11.5 kg

• 90 mts each of 100 gms then total weight= 90*100=9000gm=9kg;
  100 bolts each of 150 gms then total weight=100*150=15000gms= 15kg;
  total weight of objects in box= 15+9 =24;
  box weight with object= 35.5;
  hence empty box weight=
  filled box weight- object weight= 35.5-24 = 11.5;
  Ans- 11.5 i.e option D
