given that :- 48in. Wide steel coil have weight 10,800 kegs here total coil = 48 in. , total weight of coil=10800 kegs
if the coil 0.5 in. cut then What is the weight of the 0.5 in. Coil=?
now first we get the weight of 1 in. coil by dividing total weight of coil by total coil:-
1 in. coil weight=total weight of coil/total coil
= 10800/48
=225 kegs (weight in 1 in.coil)
now, to get the weight in 0.5 in. coil we have to multiply the amount of 1 in coil weight with the 0.s in coil
weight in 0.5 in. coil = 225*0.5
=112.5 kegs (weight in 0.5 in. coil)
