we are given

5 equally sized boxes of cake mix fell off the back of Jake's truck

it means that

total number of balls =5

Together they weigh 925.98 pounds

total weighs =925.98 pounds

each ball weighs = (total weights)/(total number of balls)

now, we can plug values

each ball weighs =
(925.98)/(5)

each ball weighs is 185.196 pounds..................Answer
