A fruit and vegetable merchant installed 15 kg of carrots, 13 kg of zucchini and 8 kg of broccoli. He sold only half of them. What mass of vegetables did he sell? Give me reasons, before answering the question

You first need to know the total weight of the vegetables, so you add each quantity: 15 + 13 + 8 = 36 kg. Then you have to find half of 36: 36 / 2 = 18 kg. So, he sold 18 kg of vegetables. So the final answer is 18.
