Answer:

(B) 16.7 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

First, start by converting everything to kilograms (using unit converters):

[tex]250g(\frac{10^{-3}kg}{1g})=250*10^{-3}kg=0.25kg[/tex]

Then, add all the weights together:

[tex]100kg+0.25kg+150kg+0.25g=250kg+0.5kg=250.5kg[/tex]

Now, divide this number by 15 (since they are packed in 15 bags):

[tex]\frac{250.5kg}{15}=16.7 kg[/tex]

(B) 16.7 kg
