the ratio of weight of an object on planet A to the weight of the same object on planet B is 100 to 3. if an elephant weights 2200 pounds on planet A finf the elephant weight on planet B
[tex] \frac{planet A}{planet B} [/tex] ⇒ [tex] \frac{100}{3} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{2200}{x} [/tex] Solve for x to find the weight of the elephant on planet B. Cross multiply; (100)(x) and (3)(2200).
You now have: 100x = 6600. Divide both sides by 100.
