Answer 1

Answer:

f 1 pound on Earth is equal to 1.19 pounds on Neptune all you have to do is multiply the number of Earth pounds by their Neptunian equivalent: 9x1.19=10.71 the dog would weigh 10.71 pounds :) I hope this makes sense :)

Answer 2

Answer:

They will weigh 10.71 on Neptune

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a ratio to solve

1 Earth              9 Earth

--------------  = ---------------

1.19 Nept           x Neptune

Using cross products

1x = 1.19 * 9

x =10.71

They will weigh 10.71 on Neptune
