    Answer: Yes, he can take both refrigerators in one trip.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to convert the kilograms into pounds.

    Since 1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds

    105 kilograms x 2.2 pounds/kilogram = 231 pounds (1 refrigerator's weight)

    Since there are 2 refrigerators, we have to multiply the weight of 1 refrigerator by 2 to obtain the total weight in pounds:

    231 pounds x 2 = 462 pounds

    Since the elevator can lift up to 1000 pounds.

    1000p>462p

    He can take both refrigerators in one trip
