Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 oz = 0.0625 lb

Ratio of the hiker an backpack in the first row = 152.25 lb : 14.5 lb

                                                                            = 21 : 2

Hiker's weight       Backpack weight                  Total weight (in lb)

1). 152 lb 4 oz                14 lb 8 oz                (152+14) lb (4+8) oz = 164lb 12oz

                                                                                                  = 16.75 lb

2). 107 lb 10 oz               10 lb 4 oz                (107+10) lb (10+4) oz = 117 lb 14 oz

                                                                                                        = 117.875 lb

3). 129 lb 15 oz           \frac{129.9375}{x}=\frac{21}{2}                 (129+12) lb (15+6)oz = 141 lb 21 oz

                              x = 12.375 lb                                                      = 142.3125lb

                              x = 12 lb 6 oz

4). \frac{x}{8.75}=\frac{21}{2}                   8 lb 12 oz                 (8 + 91) lb (14+12) oz = 99 lb 26 lb

   x = 91.875 lb                                                                                = 100.625 lb

  x = 91 lb 14 oz

5). \frac{x}{10}=\frac{21}{2}                     10 lb                           (105 + 10) lb = 115 lb

    x = 105 lb

not sure what class this is for but I\ll try. Each traveller has a 21 km drive so their fare should be equal.

method 1) each traveller can pay for 21 km worth when they get out

method 2) Curly can pay the full fare and Andy and Bob can pay him back later (they're brothers so this should be easy to manage)
