Final answer:

The weights would be equal to 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weighted mean using equal weights is calculated by summing up all the values and dividing it by the total number of values.

In this case, since the weights are equal, each weight would be 1.

For example, if we have the numbers 3, 5, 7, the weighted mean would be calculated as (3*1 + 5*1 + 7*1) / (1+1+1) = 5.
