Question

If you weigh 2 times the weight of your dog, then what is your weight if your dog weighs 25 kg?
A. $27kg$
B. $25kg$
C. $30kg$
D. $50kg$

Answer 1

Hint:In order to answer this question, first we will rewrite the given facts in the question and then we will let the weight of your age. And we will write the equation with respect to your weights and the dog’s weight.

Complete step by step answer:
Given that:- You weigh 2 times the weight of your dog. And the dog weighs $25kg$ .And we have to find your weight. So, let your weight be $xkg$. According to the question:-
$x = 2 \times weight\,of\,dog \\
\Rightarrow x = 2 \times 25kg \\
\therefore x = 50kg $
Therefore, the required weight is $50kg$ .

Hence, the correct option is D.

Note:This question belongs to the linear equation question, which is generally solved by assuming the required term as a variable and then acting according to the question to find the value of the variable that is the required term.
