Tom weighs 150 kg.  He manages to hold 1.5 times his weight in each hand while wearing a weight vest weighing half his weight.  How much total weight was he moving with?
He was carrying 150*1.5=<<150*1.5=225>>225 kg in each hand
So he had 225*2=<<225*2=450>>450 kg in his hands
The weight vest weighed 150*.5=<<150*.5=75>>75 kg
So he had a total of 450+75=<<450+75=525>>525 kg he was moving
#### 525
