If I lose 5 pounds in one week and I weigh 165 pounds, how much will I weigh after 5 weeks?

Answer :

After losing 5 pounds each week for 5 weeks from an initial weight of 165 pounds, you will weigh 140 pounds.

If you start at 165 pounds and lose 5 pounds each week, you can calculate your weight after 5 weeks. Weight loss per week is 5 pounds, so over 5 weeks that would be:

5 pounds/week x 5 weeks = 25 pounds

Starting weight is 165 pounds. So, your weight after 5 weeks will be:

165 pounds - 25 pounds = 140 pounds

Therefore, you will weigh 140 pounds after losing 5 pounds each week for 5 weeks.
