    Answer:

    D = 48kg

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The ratio of the weights of A and B is equal to the ratio of the weights

    of C and D.

    From the above question

    A : B = C : D

    This can also be interpreted as

    A/B = C/D

    A is 20 kg

    B is 24kg

    C is 40kg

    D is ?

    Therefore:

    20/24 = 40/D

    Cross Multiply

    20D = 24 × 40

    D = 24 × 40/20

    D = 48

    Therefore, D = 48kg
