Four rock climbers started a climb with each person carrying 5.8 kilograms of climbing equipment. A 5th climber without equipment joined the group. The group decided to divide the total weight of climbing equipment equally among the 5 climbers. How much did each climber carry?

4.64 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

Four rock climbers started a climb and each person carried 5.8 kilograms of climbing equipment.

Total kilograms of climbing equipment will be:

5.8kg × 4 = 23.2kg

A 5th climber later joined without equipment and the group decided to divide the total weight of the climbing equipment equally among the 5 climbers. This will be:

Total kilograms of climbing equipment = 5.8kg × 4 = 23.2kg

Total climbers= 5

Each climber will carry= 23.2 / 5

= 4.64kilogram
