Complete question:

Container x contained 1200g of sand. Container y contained 7.2kg of sand. After as equal amount of sand was removed from each container, Container Ynow has 7 times as much as sand as container x. How much sand was removed from each container?

the mass of sand removed from both containers is 0.2kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mass of sand in container X = 1200g = 1.2kg

Mass of and in container Y = 7.2kg

Equal amount of sand was removed from both.

Let the mass of sand removed from both containers = z

That is;

Container X = 1.2 - z

Container Y = 7.2 -z

Now container Y has become 7times the content in container X

Container Y = 7 * (container X)

7.2 -z = 7(1.2 - z)

7.2 - z = 8.4 -7z

-z + 7z = 8.4 - 7.2

6z = 1.2

z = 0.2

Therefore, the mass of sand removed from both containers is 0.2kg
