One more torque question


A 650N boy and a 450 N girl sit on a 150 N porch swing that is 1.7 meters long. The swing itself is uniform in shape with its center of mass in the middle. if the swing is supported by a chain at each end, what is the tension in each chain when the boy sits 0.75 m from the left end and the girl 0.5 m from the other end?
