Answer:

525 pound of onions were recieved

Step-by-step explanation:

1 bag of potatoes: 30 pounds

total pounds of potatoes and onions received= 1800

let the total pounds of onions received be x,

25 bags of potatoes = 25 × 30= 750 pounds

now according to the question,

x + x + 750= 1800

2x = 1800 - 750

x= 1050 ÷ 2

x= 525
