Answer:

Base: 135 Pound

Torso: 135 Pound

Explanation:

The snowman Weighed is 472 pounds

The head was 202 Pound

We have to find the total weight of the base and torso

472 - 202 = 270 pound

So, 270 pounds is the total weight of the base and torse

We know the base and torso weigh the same amount

So take 270 divided by 2 = 135 Pound

So, the Base weight is 135 Pound

the Torso weight is 135 Pound
