The largest meteorite in the world is hoba west located in Namibia. It's [sic] weight is three times more than the weight of armanty meteorite located in Mongolia. If the sum of their weight is 88 tons. Find the weight of each.
-----------
h = weight of Hoba
a = weight of armanty
---
h = a + 3a = 4a
h + a = 88
4a + a = 88
5a = 88
a = 17.6 tons
---
h = 4a
h = 70.4 tons
---------
PS it's = it is
