Our word problem could.

The relationship between weight of Jim's dog and John's dog is shown below.

a. Calculate the weight of John's dog?

b. Calculate the difference in weight of both dogs?

Solution:

a. Weight of John's Dog

Given

Represent John's dog with J and Jim's dog with D

$J = 16.23\ lb$

From the attachment, we can see that.

$D = \frac{1}{3} * J$

$D = \frac{1}{3}J$

To solve for D, substitute 16.23 for J

$D = \frac{1}{3} * 16.23$

D = 5.41

Hence: Jim's Dog is 5.41lb

b. Difference in Weight

Difference is calculated as thus:

Difference = J - D

Difference = 16.23 - 5.41

Difference = 10.82
