problem

It's a well-known physics formula that force equals mass times acceleration. Jen wants to throw a softball with the same force as Jack throws a baseball. If the softball has a mass of 200200 g and the baseball has a mass of 150150 g, what is the ratio of acceleration of Jen's ball to Jack's? Answer as a fraction in lowest terms.
