The scales readings are 300 N for each of the scale.
The weight of an object is the force acting on the object due to gravity.
Weight is a vector quantity because it varies from place to place due to difference in acceleration due to gravity and it is measured in Newton (N).
The total weight of the person is supported by the two legs and if the person stand on a level ground, the weight will be evenly distributed and each scale will carry half of the person's weight.
The reading of each scale due to the weight of the person is calculated as follows;
Reading of each scale = total weight / 2
Reading of each scale = 600 N/2
Reading of each scale = 300 N
Thus, the scales readings are 300 N for each of the scale.
