Answer:

  • 1015 g and 145 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Let pineapple  = x, orange = y

A pineapple is 7 times as heavy as an orange:

  • x = 7y

The pineapple also weighs 870 grams more than the orange:

  • x = y + 870

Compare the two equations above:

  • 7y = y + 870
  • 6y = 870
  • y = 870/6
  • y = 145

Find the value of x:

  • x = y + 870 = 145 + 870 = 1015
