Answer:

2 Crib Jacks will be required.

Step-by-step explanation:

Henry's house weighs 65000 pounds.

Weight of the belongings = 5000 pounds

Net weight of the structure = 65000 - 5000 = 60000 pounds

Movers are using Crib Jacks to lift the house.

Since 1 Crab Jack can handle weight up to 15 tones. So we have to find the number of Crib Jacks will be required to lift Henry's house.

∵ 1 tone = 2200 pounds

∴ 15 tones = 2200×15 = 33000 pounds

Now number Crib Jacks required = weight of the house ÷ weight one jack can handle = 60000 ÷ 33000 = 1.82 ≈ 2

Therefore 2 Crib Jacks will be required.

Since 1 ton is 2,000 lbs, each Crib Jack can life 30,000 lbs. It's going to take 2 Crib Jacks, because the extra 5,000 lbs in belongings were removed, leaving the house at a weight of 60,000 lbs.
