At a gym, the blue weights are 2 pounds each, and the green weights are 3 pounds each. Harry put 4 blue weights and 5 green weights onto a metal bar. The bar itself weighs 2 pounds. What is the total amount of weight, in pounds, of Harry's custom creation? Let's answer step by step:
The blue weights weigh 4 * 2 = 8 pounds. The green weights weigh 5 * 3 = 15 pounds. The weights weigh 8 + 15 = 23 pounds. The total is then 23 + 2 = 25. The answer: 25.
