Judie weighed 7 3/8 pounds when she was born .By the age of 6 she was 5 times as heavy . if A stands for pounds Write the equation you would use to find Judie weight at age 6

A = 5 * 7 3/8

= 5 (59/8)
= 295/8
= 36 7/8 pounds

To find Judie's weight at the age of 6, we can set up an equation based on the given information.

Let's define J as Judie's weight at age 6.

According to the problem, "By the age of 6, she was 5 times as heavy." This means that her weight at age 6 (J) is equal to 5 times her weight when she was born (7 3/8 pounds).

To represent the weight at age 6 in terms of pounds, we can use the equation:

J = 5 * A

Here, A represents Judie's weight when she was born, and J represents Judie's weight at age 6.
