The chairs all together weigh 77.84 pounds .I know this because I subtracted the total weight from the tables weight ,so the left over wieght is 77.84 which is how much all of the chairs weigh together .EACH chair weighs 9.615 becuase I divide the weigh of the chairs altogether by how many chairs there are . 77.84÷ 8 chairs
