Answer:
D = 48kg
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the weights of A and B is equal to the ratio of the weights
of C and D.
From the above question
A : B = C : D
This can also be interpreted as
A/B = C/D
A is 20 kg
B is 24kg
C is 40kg
D is ?
Therefore:
20/24 = 40/D
Cross Multiply
20D = 24 × 40
D = 24 × 40/20
D = 48
Therefore, D = 48kg
