Let's call Jessie's weight "J" in grams.
According to the problem, Buzz is three times as heavy as Jessie, so his weight would be:
B = 3J
We also know that Buzz is 450g heavier than Jessie, so we can set up the equation:
B = J + 450
Now we can substitute the first equation into the second equation:
3J = J + 450
Subtracting J from both sides:
2J = 450
Dividing both sides by 2:
J = 225
So Jessie weighs 225g.
To find out Buzz's weight, we can plug J = 225 into our first equation:
B = 3J = 3(225) = 675
Therefore, Buzz weighs 675g.
