Answer: Each book is 1,800 grams.

Explanation:

You have an empty box which is 1,800 grams. After you put the books in, it's 9 kilograms. There are 9,000 grams in 9 kilograms, and 1,800 grams were already there before you put the books.. so just do 9,000 - 1,800 which equals 7,200. Then divide 7,200 by 4, because there are 4 books with equal mass. 7,200 divided by 4 = 1,800.

Math. ;) Hope this helps! (If I got it right ofc)

Answer: Each book is 1,800 grams.​
