Question 2405Deck Safety70% to pass
You have 360 tons of below deck tonnage and 145 tons of above deck cargo on board. You must load 220 tons of liquid mud below deck. How much more deck cargo can you load? See illustration D036DG below.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 94 tons.
To explain:
1) The total below deck tonnage is 360 tons, and you must load an additional 220 tons of liquid mud below deck. This leaves 360 - 220 = 140 tons of available below deck tonnage.
2) Since the question states you have 145 tons of above deck cargo, and the maximum available deck cargo is 239 tons (the total capacity minus the below deck cargo), the amount of additional deck cargo you can load is 239 - 145 = 94 tons.
3) The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately calculate the remaining available deck cargo capacity.
