Answer:

225 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be Rashid's original weight.

If 16% of Rashid's original weight is 36 lb then:

[tex]\implies 0.16x=36[/tex]

To find Rashid's original weight solve for x:

[tex]\implies \dfrac{0.16x}{0.16}=\dfrac{36}{0.16}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=225[/tex]

Therefore, Rashid's original weight is 225 lb.
