Question 1053248: A length of angle iron has the following dimensions:
3" * 3" * 1/4"
Weight of 4.9 lbs. / ft.
Calculate weight of 20 pieces 20' 9" in length.
The angle is "L" shaped.
My attempt:
20' 9" = 20.75'
20.75 * 4.9 = 101.675 = 102 * 20 = 2040 lbs.
Where am I correct?; Unsure how to include the angle.
