Answer :
160 grams.
Step by step explanation :
Step 1 : Find how many grams 1 jar of paprika weighs.
We know 7 jars of paprika has a weight of 210 grams, so we know that 1 jar of paprika weighs 30 grams.
Step 2 : Find the weight of 4 packets of sage.
To do this let’s first multiply the weight of 1 paprika jar by 3 (30 times 3) which is 90 grams. So out of the 290 grams total,
90 grams is the 3 paprika jars.
290 - 90 = 200
That means that 4 packets of sage weigh 200 grams.
Step 3 : Find the weight of each packet of sage.
200 divided by 4 = 50 grams
1 packet of sage weighs 50 grams.
So now we know that 1 packet of sage is 50 grams and 1 jar of paprika is 30 grams. The question asks for the total weight of 2 jars of paprika and 2 packets of sage.
Step 4 : add them together.
2(30) + 2(50) = 60 + 100
60 + 100 = 160
Therefore the total weight of 2 jars of paprika and 2 packets of sage is 160 grams.
