Just found this post on a different forum:
"Answer : C 13.74kg
NOTE : I have spent over 30mins trying to get and exact answer but can't get an exact match, I am sure it's not A and all the figures I have come up with are far closer to C to within a near match, even allowing for slight variances I don't think it can be B but if anyone wants to have a go at getting a precise answer feel free!"0
