Answer:
5/3

Explanation:
The given is:
70/42
We can start by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 7 as follows:
(70/7) / (42/7) 
10 / 6
The result can be further simplified by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2 as follows:
(10/2) / (6/2)
This will give us:
5/3
The reached result cannot be further simplified.
Therefore:
70 pounds to 42 pounds is equivalent t 5 pounds to 3 pounds in the simplest form.

Hope this helps :)
