The force of gravity on the moon is approximately one sixth that of the earth. The direct variation formula for weight on the ea
rth compared to weight on the moon would be e = 6m, where e = weight on the earth and m = weight on the moon. The space suit that an astronaut wears while making a moon walk would weigh approximately 90 pounds on earth. What would be the weight of a 180 pound man wearing a space suit on the moon
Well we know that 10 and 3/4 is equivalent to 10.75. If we divide the meat into 8 equal packages we have to divide 10.75 by 8. Dividing 10.75 by 8 gives us 1.34375 pounds of meat per package. If we take that, and multiply it by our given value of $3.40 per pound, we end up getting $4.57 a package.
