    Step-by-step explanation:

    Pound can be decribed as a unit of mass.

    Mass of total beads = 3/4 pounds.

    Pink beads = 1/6 * total beads

    = 1/6 * 3/4

    = 1/8 pounds of pink beads.

    Green beads = (1 - 1/6) * total beads

    = 5/6 * 3/4

    = 5/8 pounds of green beads.

    Green beads were packed equally into 10 jars.

    In 1 jar, (5/8) / 10

    = 1/16 pounds of green beads in 1 jar.

    Weight of green beads (in N),

    1 pound of mass = 4.448 N

    Therefore, (1/16) = 0.0625 pounds of green beads to Newton;

    = 4.448*0.0625

    = 0.278 N.

    The weight of green beans in each jar is 1/16 pounds

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total weight of beads = 3/4 pounds

    Weight of pink beads = 1/6 * 3/4 pounds = 1/8 pounds

    Weight of green beads = 3/4 - 1/8 = 5/8 pounds

    Total weight of green beads in 10 jars = 5/8 pounds

    Weight of green beads in each jar = 5/8 : 10 = 5/8 * 1/10 = 1/16 pounds
