Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two boys want to balance a seesaw perfectly. One boy weighs 240 pounds and is sitting four feet from the fulcrum. The other boy weighs 160 pounds. Where should the lighter boy sit to balance the seesaw?

We solve using the formula

Distance on the fulcrum × Weight of the boy

= 4 × 240 = x × 160

4 × 240 = 160x

x = 4 × 240/169
