Consider the question. Tom weighs 150 kg. He manages to hold 1.5 times his weight in each hand while wearing a weight vest weighing half his weight. How much total weight was he moving with?
If the answer is '525'; explain the reasoning:
He was carrying 150 * 1.5 = 225 kg in each hand. So he had 225 * 2 = 450 kg in his hands. The weight vest weighed 150 * .5 = 75 kg. So he had a total of 450 + 75 = 525 kg he was moving.
