🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between gross, net, and tare weight on a cargo label • How consignment/package markings like 22/25 are commonly used on shipping cartons • Total consignment weight = number of cartons × weight per carton (gross)

💭 Think About

• From the label, which number represents the weight of one full carton, including its packaging? • What does the fraction 22/25 most likely indicate about the total number of similar cartons in this shipment? • Once you know the weight of one carton and how many cartons are in the consignment, what simple calculation should you perform?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you are using the gross weight (not net, not tare) for each carton when finding total consignment weight • Confirm how many cartons in total are indicated by the marking 22/25 • After multiplying, check that your result exactly matches one of the answer choices before selecting it
