Homework Statement
Four masses are connected by 17.4 cm long, massless, rigid rods. If massA=105.0 g, massB=231.0 g, massC=204.0 g, and massD=248.0 g, what are the coordinates of the center of mass if the origin is located at mass A?

Homework Equations
Xc.m = [itex]\sum[/itex]Δm x
The Attempt at a Solution
Xc.m = (0*105)+(248*17.4)+(204*17.4)+(231*17.4)/788
=16.24
How do you find the x and y coordinates?
