Well, you would have to add.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So any ideas?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it's c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why would you think that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because is says sergio lifts 12 and it weighed 10 lb more then the other guy 12(c+10)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, it says his boxes were 10 lb more than the other guy's boxes. So you would just add 10 to that guy's box to get the value of sergio's box. So whta is your answer?
