Solution:

Step 1: Calculate 8% of the raw sheets of aluminum :

[tex]200\text{ x 0.08 = 16}[/tex]

This is the weight that is lost in the production of the fuel tank.

Step 2: Calculate the weight of the tank :

200 pounds - 16 pounds = 184 pounds.

So that, we can conclude that the correct answer is:

184 pounds.
