A 120 lb. person would weigh about 20 lb. on earth`s moon. A 150 lb. person weigh 28 lb. on lo, o moon of Jupiter. Use ratio tables to determinate which person weigh the most.



Answer :

100 lbs moon
112 lbs Jupiter's moon
In this question, there are two different moons, so it will be two different mass conversion. In Earth moon, the 120lb person will become 20 lb. So the conversion rate is: 20lb/120lb= 1/6 times or 0.167 times

In Jupiter moon, the 150lb person will become 28 lb. So the conversion rate is: 28lb/150lb= 0.187 times

The ratio of earth:jupiter moon would be: 0.167 / 0.187 = 0.891 times. Then the person will weight most at jupiter moon
