Victoria weighs 5/7 as much as mario. victoria weighs 125 lbs. how much does mario weigh?

5/7 ... 125 lbs

7/7 ... x lbs

x = 7/7*125:5/7 = 125*7:5 = 875:5 = 175 lbs

I’m going to do this by setting two fractions equivalent to each other so Ima do

5/7=125/x because 5 is equal to Victoria and 7 is equal to Mario in the scenario

Now multiply across so 125*7=875 and divide that by the other number so 875/5 = 175 so Mario is 175 lbs
