How would you do it?

Guys
If you were figuring out the tongue weight of a Single wheel cargo bike trailer, like this one,
How could you do it?

The only way I can see, is to make a stake to hold the tongue at the approximate height/location as when attached to the bike, set the stake on a scale's center, then add weights inside the trailer, in these 3 locations of front, middle and rear of the frame basket, to read the indicated tongue weight?
The trailer has a weight limit of 100#'s.

This tongue weight question has been asked, but no information can be found, so far.
Your thoughts or suggestions.............

Suspend the tongue with a fish scale. You can, of course just do the math.

Formula for Tongue Weight

T=W(Laxle - Lload)/Laxle

T : Tongue Weight (lbs)

W : Total Trailer Weight (lbs)

Laxle : Total distance from hitch ball to center of axle(s) (ft)

Lload : Distance from hitch ball to the center of the load (ft)
