Question: A lorry is 500 pounds when empty. What will its weight be if it's loaded with 20 bags of apples, each weighing 60 pounds? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
If the lorry is loaded with 20 bags of apples, each weighing 60 pounds, it will have an additional weight of 20 * 60 = 1200. The total weight of the lorry after being loaded with the bags of apples will be 500 + 1200 = 1700 pounds. So the answer is 1700.
