Question

a person who weigh 200 pound on earth would about 32 pound on the moon . find the weight of person on earth who would weight 15 pound of the moon

Answer 1

We can use ratios to solve this.

`(200)/(32) = (x)/(15)`
cross multiply equations

32x = 15 x 200

32x = 3000

x = 3000/32

x = 93.75

15 pound person on the moon would weigh 93.75 pound on earth.
