Solution

  1. To find out how much 10 flats will weigh in kg, we first need to calculate the total volume of water in 10 flats.

Step 1: Calculate the total volume of water in one flat. There are 24 bottles in a flat and each bottle contains 355 mL of water. So, the total volume of water in one flat is 24 bottles * 355 mL/bottle = 8520 mL.

Step 2: Convert the volume from mL to L. We know that 1 L = 1000 mL. So, 8520 mL = 8520/1000 L = 8.52 L.

Step 3: Calculate the total volume of water in 10 flats. The total volume of water in 10 flats is 10 flats * 8.52 L/flat = 85.2 L.

Step 4: Convert the volume to weight. We know that the weight of water is approximately 1 kg/L. So, the weight of 85.2 L of water is approximately 85.2 kg.

  1. To find out how much those 10 flats will weigh in pounds, we need to convert the weight from kg to pounds.

Step 1: Convert the weight from kg to pounds. We know that 1 kg is approximately 2.20462 pounds. So, 85.2 kg = 85.2 kg * 2.20462 pounds/kg = 187.7 pounds.

So, 10 flats of 355 mL bottles of water will weigh approximately 85.2 kg or 187.7 pounds.
