So the answer here is wrong since Na +Nb=\= 1041?

So I think the answers were divided by two because there are two wheels on the front and two on the back. So each wheel feels that N.

correct me if im wrong, but the sum of your forces in the y =/= 0. pushing down we have 3/5 * 100 + 9.81*100 = 1041N however, your forces going up add to 735.3 N I got NA = 362.56 and NB = 678.44

[@engineeringdeciphered]

Yeah, that makes more sense than mine
