How Is Tension Distributed in a Multi-Block System?

[physicsgrade11]

Ok - I was helping a friend out and was helping her with a problem but I am not sure if i was right.
A girl is pulling three blocks with a rope at a force of 6 N . There is two more strings between each block. The first block weighs 0.5 N the second block weighs 1.5N the third block weighs 1 N. Ignore friction. What is the amount of tension on each rope?

Sorry i made a mistake the weight of the blocks are meant to be in kilograms not N .
lol idiot me...

The force on the rope between the first and second blocks is 5N
And the force on the rope between the second and third blocks is 2N.

I hope that helps
If you need the steps to get the answers, just ask.

The unit of weight IS Newton, though..
