A bar of steel weighs twice the mass of a bar of tin. If a steel bar also weighs 20 kgs more than a copper bar and a copper bar weighs 90 kgs, calculate the total weight of a container with 20 bars of each type of metal. Give me reasons, before answering the question

The total weight of 20 bars of copper is 20 * 90 = 1800kgs. If a copper bar weighs 90 kgs, and a steel bar weighs 20 kgs more than a copper bar, the weight of a steel bar is 90 + 20 = 110 kgs. If a bar of steel weighs 110 kgs, 20 bars will weigh 20 * 110 = 2200kgs. The total weight of 20 bars of copper and steel is 2200 + 1800 = 4000 kgs. A bar of steel weighs twice the mass of a bar of tin, meaning a bar of tin weighs 110 / 2 = 55 kgs. The total weight of 20 bars of tins is 55 * 20 = 1100 kgs. The total weight of 20 bars of each metal is 4000 + 1100 = 5100 kgs. So the final answer is 5100.
