Can anyone help with a physics problem with Center of Mass?

To determine the location of his center of mass, a physics student lies on a lightweight plank supported by two scales L = 4.40 m apart, as indicated in the link.

You also need to know the reading of the scales.
I will solve it using F1 as the reading at the scale below the head and F2 as the reading of the far scale.
Note that F1+F2=W where W is the students weight

F2*4.4=W*x
x=F2*4.4/(F1+F2)
