Answer» It is given that Weight of 10 oarsmen is increased by 1.5kg So the total weight increased = 1.5 (10) = 15kg It is given that one of the crew who weights 58kg is replaced by a new man So we get the weight of new man = weight of man replaced + total weight increased By substituting the values Weight of the new man = 58 + 15 = 73kg Therefore, the weight of a new man is 73kg. |
