Because of the fact that the amberjack is essentially three snappers, it can be shown as 3s
since one snapper is one s, and the amberjack is 3s, we can combine like terms
s+3s = 4s
because altogether, the fish weigh 44 pounds, 4s would equal 44 (shown as 4s = 44), from there, simply divide by 4 on both sides to get the weight of a snapper;
s = 11
Small bonus (finding an amberjack)
Since an amberjack is equal to three snappers, and a snapper is 11 pounds, an amberjack would be 33 pounds.
Convert 3 hours and 30 minutes all into minutes so that would be 210 minutes. You then have 169 miles / 210 minutes. Get the denominator to 1 minutes by dividing by 210 to the top and bottom and you'll get .080476 miles / 1 minute which is the answer.
