frnds in these question we did not understand
how the comes the weight of 5th box. plz tell me

There are 5 boxes in a cargo. The weight of the 1st box is 200 KG, the weight of the 2nd box is 20% higher than the third box, whose weight is 25% higher than the 1st box weight. The 4th box which weighs 350 KG is 30% lighter than the 5th box. Find the difference in average weight of the 4 heaviest boxes and the four lightest boxes.
Sol: weight of 1st box=200
weight of 3rd box=(125/100)*200=250
weight of 2nd box=(120/100)*250=300
weight of 4th box =350
weight of 5th box=(10/7)*350=500
average of 4 highest weighted boxes=(500+350+300+250)/4=350
average of 4 lightest boxes=(350+300+250+200)/4=275
therefore difference=350-275=75

• 4th box is 70% lighter than the 5th box.
  Hence, weight of 4th box= (70/100)*(Weight of the 5th box)
  350=(70/100)*B5
  and weight of 5th box, B5=500
