    Weights of Friends: A, B, C, and D
    This document explains the weights of four friends: A, B, C, and D, based on given relationships.
    Weight Relationships
    1. Let the weight of B be x kg.
    2. A is twice as heavy as B: A = 2x.
    3. C is half of B's weight: C = x / 2.
    4. D is 60 kg more than B: D = x + 60.
    5. D is also 60 kg less than A: D = 2x - 60.
    Setting Up the Equations
    From the equation for D:
    x + 60 = 2x - 60
    Solving for x
    Rearranging gives:
    60 + 60 = 2x - x
    120 = x
    Calculating the Weights
    1. Weight of B: B = x = 120 kg
    2. Weight of A: A = 2x = 240 kg
    3. Weight of C: C = x / 2 = 60 kg
    4. Weight of D: D = x + 60 = 180 kg
    Comparing Weights
    A = 240 kg
    B = 120 kg
    C = 60 kg
    D = 180 kg
    Conclusion
    A is the heaviest among the friends.
