An employee at a company that assembles chandeliers is packing boxes
for shipping. In the first box, he packed 3 small chandeliers and 4 large
chandeliers, which weighed a total of 122 kilograms. In the second box,
he packed 3 small chandeliers and 2 large chandeliers, which had a
weight of 76 kilograms. Assuming the weight of the box isn't included in
the shipping weight, how much does each size of chandelier weigh? *

Answer:

Each Large chandelier weighs 23 kilograms (fat chandelier) and each small chandelier weighs 10 kilograms.

Step-by-step explanation:

I found this by subtracting the 122 from the 76 which gave me a 46 difference I then divided it by 2 since they took away 2 large chandeliers which gave me 23. I then multiplied 23 by 4 which gave me 92 and I saw that to get to 122 I would need 30 kilograms so I divided the 30 by the 3 small chandeliers.
