A truck is carrying 9 cars weighing an average of 4,000 pounds each. What is the total weight in tons of the cars on the truck

Respuesta :

Answer:

18 tons

Step-by-step explanation

First you need to know that 1 ton is 2,000 pounds. Ok so if you do the 4,000 pounds times the 9 cars you get 36,000 pounds in total and then you can divide by 2,000 and you get 18 so it is 18 tons.
