Answer:

12,200 Kgs

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple case of subtraction.

-Given that the flight had 10,100 kg instead of 22,300 kgs.

-The difference is calculated as;

[tex]\bigtriangleup=22300-10100\\\\=12,200\ kg[/tex]

Hence, the flight was shot 12,200 kg of fuel

*Note however that the standard conversion ratio is 1 Kg= 2.20462 lbs
