Question

The weights of two trucks are in the ratio of 4 : 7. If together, they weigh 3300 tonnes, how many more tonnes does the larger truck weigh?

Worked Solution
Total Parts in Ratio = 4 + 7
= 11
Smaller truck's weight = 330011\dfrac{3300}{11} ×\times 4
= 1200 tonnes
Larger truck's weight = 330011\dfrac{3300}{11} ×\times 7
= 2100 tonnes
Difference in weight = 2100 −- 1200
= {{{correctAnswer}}}

Therefore, the larger truck is {{{correctAnswer}}} tonnes heavier.
