1. The problem asks about the total weight of 2 parcels, each weighing a certain number of kilograms. 2. Let's assume each parcel weighs $x$ kilograms. 3. Since there are 2 parcels, the total weight is $2 \times x = 2x$ kilograms. 4. If the question provides a specific weight for each parcel, substitute that value for $x$ to find the total weight. 5. For example, if each parcel weighs 5 kg, then total weight is $2 \times 5 = 10$ kg. 6. This is a simple multiplication problem involving addition of equal weights. Final answer: The total weight of 2 parcels each weighing $x$ kg is $2x$ kg.
