🔍 Key Concepts

• Moment formula and relationship between moment, force, and distance • Unit consistency when working with ft-tons and tons • How to rearrange a basic formula to solve for an unknown

💭 Think About

• What is the basic formula that connects moment, force, and moment arm (distance)? • If you know the moment and the force, how can you rearrange that formula to isolate the moment arm? • After computing the distance, does the size of your answer make sense compared to the given numbers?

✅ Before You Answer

• Write the correct formula: Moment = Force × Distance (with consistent units) • Carefully divide using the correct numbers and keep tons with tons and feet with feet • Compare your result with each option and check if the magnitude (small vs. large) is reasonable for the given moment and force
