I don't understand how you could get an answer out of this at all! Any help is greatly appreciated.

-> a person stands on a bathroom scale in a motionless elevator. When the elevator begins to move, the scale briefly reads only .75 of the persons regular weight. Calculate the acceleration of the elevator and find the direction of accekration.

HELP! thank you so much.
