What is the formula for determining the weight at each of four legs on a table? The table is 180 lbs total?

Rick W asked:


Each leg has a caster rated for 66 lbs. The weight is dispersed over a top that measures 32″ x 66″
So if I place 300 lbs right in the center of the table, the casters will fail????
