Answer: The number of pounds each camel have to carry=44 pounds
The pounds of goods left=3 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
The total pounds of goods the merchant have=[tex]269+167+51[/tex]
=487 pounds
The total number of camels the merchant have = 11
If each camel carry same weight of goods, then we divide total weight by 11, we get
487÷11=44.27
The number of pounds each camel have to carry=44 pounds
The pounds of goods left=487-44×11=487-484=3 pounds
