the ratio of the weight of an object on jupiter to its weight on earth is 8 to 3.

how much would a 100 pound person weigh on Jupiter?

i`ll tell you the answer when am done solving so you can check if am right

never mind i already checked thanks

ok

Be sure your answer makes sense.

To solve this problem, we can use the given ratio of weights on Jupiter to Earth: 8 to 3.

Let's set up a proportion to find the weight of a 100-pound person on Jupiter:

Weight on Jupiter / Weight on Earth = 8 / 3

Let x be the weight of the person on Jupiter.

x / 100 = 8 / 3

Now, we can cross-multiply and solve for x:

3x = (100)(8)

3x = 800

Divide both sides of the equation by 3:

x = 800 / 3

x ≈ 266.67

Therefore, a person weighing 100 pounds on Earth would weigh approximately 266.67 pounds on Jupiter.

Please double-check my calculations to ensure accuracy and let me know if the answer is correct.

Did you get this?

Weight On Jupiter: 252.70 lbs

8/3 = x/100

3x = 800

x = 266.67

Given the proportion you posted, this is a better estimate of your weight on Jupiter.
