While mining, John found a large metal bar that contained 15 pounds of zinc. John also determined that the bar was 60% zinc. What was the total weight of the metal bar in pounds? Round your answer to the nearest whole number if necessary.

The total weight of the metal bar in pounds is 25 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, we have a metal bar which has a content of 60% zinc corresponding to 15 pounds.

Mathematically, let’s say the total weight of the metal composite is x pounds. It is 60% of this that is 15 pounds which is the content of the zinc

Mathematically;

60/100 * x = 15

60x = 15 * 100

60x = 1500

x = 1500/60

x = 25 pounds

yes because they have the same amount of green and blur marbles.
