    108 pounds

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First you find out how much can stretch a spring 1 inch.

    72/2 = 36

    36 pounds can stretch a inch spring, so know you need to find out how many pounds can stretch a 3 inch spring.

    36*3 = 108

    So 108 pounds can stretch a 3 inch spring.
