Respuesta :

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly you must establish the weight of the forklift.

You can do this by multiplying 300 by 1.75

This is 525 pounds

Now subtract 525 from 3200

This gives you 2675

Now you must Divide 2675 by 300

Then round down to find out the total number of crates that can be loaded

This is 8

So the Answer is A and B
