What is the moment about the pivot C

Uniform rod AB of weight 5g (g being 9.8) and length 4 metres rested on a pivot C which is 1.5m from B. Calculate the moments about the point C.sketch diagram of information provided weight is acting left of pivot so rotation will be anticlockwise. Calculation is distance between weight and pivot multiplied by weight (as moments is forcedistance) which would be 59.8*0.5 = 24.5Nm
