The total weight of a shipment of boxes is 112 pounds. There are 7 packages in the shipment, and each package weighs the same amount. The model below can be used to determine \( w \), the weight of each package.

A. 1.6 lbs.
B. 78.4 lbs.
C. 16 lbs.
D. 8 lbs.

Answer :

Answer: 16 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 7 packages and all of the packages weigh the same, then you would divide the number of packages by the total weight of the packages.

112÷7=16. 16 would be the weight of each package individually.

So, the answer is C;16 lbs.
