Select an option to attempt

Explanation

We are given that:

  • Weight of 6 boys = Weight of 7 girls = Weight of 3 men = Weight of 4 women.
  • The average weight of women is 6363 kg.

First, calculate the total weight of the 4 women: Total weight of women = 4×63=2524 \times 63 = 252 kg.

Now, the weight of 6 boys equals the weight of 4 women, which is 252252 kg.

Thus, the total weight of 6 boys is 252252 kg, and the average weight of the boys is: Average weight of boys = 252÷6=42252 \div 6 = 42 kg.

Answer: B. 4242 kg
