A farmer sends out a shipment including crates of carrots, apples, and bananas to a local retail store. He has 102 crates of carrots, 103 crates of apples, and 101 crates of bananas. Each crate of carrots weighs 24 pounds, each crate of apples weighs 18 pounds, and each crate of bananas weighs 36 pounds. What is the total weight of the entire shipment?
The total weight of the carrots is 102 crates * 24 pounds/crate = <<102*24=2448>>2448 pounds.
The total weight of the apples is 103 crates * 18 pounds/crate = <<103*18=1854>>1854 pounds.
The total weight of the bananas is 101 crates * 36 pounds/crate = <<101*36=3636>>3636 pounds.
The total weight of the entire shipment is 2448 pounds + 1854 pounds + 3636 pounds = <<2448+1854+3636=7938>>7938 pounds. Answer: \boxed{7938}.
To find the total weight of the entire shipment, we need to calculate the weight of each type of fruit and then add them together.
First, let's find the weight of the carrot crates. Each crate of carrots weighs 24 pounds, and there are 102 crates. So the total weight of the carrot crates is 24 * 102 = 2448 pounds.
Next, let's find the weight of the apple crates. Each crate of apples weighs 18 pounds, and there are 103 crates. So the total weight of the apple crates is 18 * 103 = 1854 pounds.
Finally, let's find the weight of the banana crates. Each crate of bananas weighs 36 pounds, and there are 101 crates. So the total weight of the banana crates is 36 * 101 = 3636 pounds.
To find the total weight of the entire shipment, we add the weights of the carrot, apple, and banana crates together: 2448 + 1854 + 3636 = 7938 pounds.
Therefore, the total weight of the entire shipment is 7938 pounds.
To find the total weight of the entire shipment, we need to calculate the weight of each type of crate (carrots, apples, and bananas) individually and then sum them up.
First, let's calculate the weight of the carrot crates. We have 102 crates of carrots, and each crate weighs 24 pounds. So the total weight of the carrot crates is 102 crates * 24 pounds/crate = 2448 pounds.
Next, let's calculate the weight of the apple crates. We have 103 crates of apples, and each crate weighs 18 pounds. So the total weight of the apple crates is 103 crates * 18 pounds/crate = 1854 pounds.
Lastly, let's calculate the weight of the banana crates. We have 101 crates of bananas, and each crate weighs 36 pounds. So the total weight of the banana crates is 101 crates * 36 pounds/crate = 3636 pounds.
Now we can find the total weight of the entire shipment by adding up the weights of the three types of crates: 2448 pounds (carrots) + 1854 pounds (apples) + 3636 pounds (bananas) = 7938 pounds.
Therefore, the total weight of the entire shipment is 7938 pounds.
