Henry Heavtweight weighs 1000 N and stands on a pair of bathroom scales so that one scale reads twice as much as the other. What is the greater scale reading? What is the lesser scale reading?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Greater scale 667

Lesser scale 333

Explanation:

Since the greater scale reads twice, lets say 2x and the lesser one x then total 2x+x=3x=1000 N

x=1000/3= 333.33

Approximately lesser scale is 334 N

Greater scale= 1000-333=667
