What happens here

After loading, the truck with the now-overloaded trailer is driven back onto the industrial scale. The scale displays a total weight of 19,070 kilograms. This figure is then converted to pounds by one of the testers, resulting in 42,042 pounds. Subtracting the empty weight of 15,190 pounds, the actual weight of the gravel loaded into the trailer is 26,774 pounds, equivalent to approximately 13.387 tons.

Goal: Determine the total loaded weight and the exact payload.
