If you do it 144 times that is (3+9)*12
This means that 12 times 3 red and 9 blue counters will be chosen that means that 9 blue counters will be chosen 12 times. 9*12 is 108.
This means blue counters will be chosen 108 times.
This can be checked as 108/3 would give you the number of red counters which is 36 and 108+36 is 144

Adult weighs 12,500 pounds 
it is 5 times heavier

adult = 5x  ( 5 times the weight of the baby)

12,500 = 5x

divide both sides by 5

x = 12500 / 5
x = 2500
 the baby weights 2,500 pounds
