Question

4 the rectangle weighs exactly as much as 6 trapezoids, 96 oz what is the weight of 2 trapezoids combined? a 48 oz b 32 oz c 24 oz d 16 oz

Explanation:

Step1: Find weight of 1 trapezoid

Given 6 trapezoids weigh 96 oz, so weight of 1 trapezoid is $\frac{96}{6} = 16$ oz.

Step2: Find weight of 2 trapezoids

Multiply weight of 1 trapezoid by 2: $16\times2 = 32$ oz? Wait, no, wait. Wait, 96 divided by 6 is 16? Wait, no, 96 divided by 6 is 16? Wait, 6 times 16 is 96? Yes. Then 2 trapezoids: 162=32? But wait, let's check again. Wait, the problem says the rectangle weighs as much as 6 trapezoids, which is 96 oz. So 6 trapezoids = 96 oz. So 1 trapezoid is 96/6 = 16 oz. Then 2 trapezoids: 162=32 oz? But wait, the options have B as 32 oz. Wait, but let me check again. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, 96 divided by 6 is 16, so 1 trapezoid is 16 oz. Then 2 trapezoids: 16*2=32 oz. So the answer should be B. 32 oz. Wait, but let me check the options again. The options are A.48, B.32, C.24, D.16. So yes, 32 is option B.

Wait, wait, no, wait a second. Wait, 6 trapezoids are 96 oz. So 1 trapezoid is 96/6 = 16 oz. Then 2 trapezoids: 16*2 = 32 oz. So the answer is B. 32 oz.

Answer:

B. 32 oz
