6 Samir goes to a farmers market to buy some fruit.
He fills a large bag with 29kg of apples.
He realises that he cannot carry this weight, so puts some of the apples into a smaller bag.
The weight of the apples in the large bag is 15kg larger than the smaller bag.
(a) What is the weight of the smaller bag?

Weight of Smaller Bag = 7kg

Weight of Larger Bag = 22kg

Step-by-step explanation:

x = weight of smaller bag

x + (x + 15) = 29

2x + 15 =29

2x = 14

x = 7
