Cargo

The weight of the cargo car is 761 kg. The car's weight is 23% of the total weight of the car+cargo. What is the weight of the cargo load?

Final Answer:

m =  585.97 kg

Step-by-step explanation:


v+m = 761
v = 23/100 · 761

m+v = 761
100v = 17503


v = 17503/100 = 175.03
m = 761-v = 761-175.03 = 585.97

m = 585.97
v = 175.03
