<span>The ratio of an object's weight on Earth to its weight on Neptune is 5 : 7
So,
We can use proportions to find out the weight of a person on Neptune.
Lets start:
E refers to Earth
N refers to Neptune

Therefore,
E:N = 5:7
Converting them into fractions:
E/N = 5/7
Substituting the value of weight on earth.
150/N = 5/7
Solving for N.
5 N = 150 x 7
5 N = 1050
N = 1050/5
N = 210 pounds.

Hence,the right answer is option : 
</span><span>C) 210 pounds.</span>

Jonathan fills 2/5 of a toffe box in 15 seconds. How many boxes can he fill in 10 minutes?
Zina [86]

Answer:

16 boxes in 10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 = 15 sec

15 ÷ 2=7.5              1/5 = 7.5 seconds

7.5 × 5 = 37.5            37.5 = 1 box

60 × 10 = 600 secs

600 ÷ 37.5 = 16

16 boxes of toffee were made in 10 minutes
