To find the weight of the fuel when the airplane's gas tanks are full, we need to multiply the number of gallons of fuel by the weight of gasoline per gallon.
Weight of fuel = 5,425.6 gallons * 5.8 lbs/gallon
Weight of fuel = 31,468.48 lbs
Therefore, the weight of the fuel when the airplane's gas tanks are full is 31,468.48 lbs.
