i need help

OpenStudy (yanni):

Austin loaded a truck with 15-pound bags of fertilizer. The truck ended up with 2375 pounds of load, which was more than the recommended load for the truck. Austin's supervisor told him to move some of the bags over to an empty truck until the loads in the two trucks weighed the same. How many bags did Austin have to move?

OpenStudy (yanni):

i mean 2370 not 2375

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (yanni):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
