Weights- take away the 'w' and 's' and you get 'eight'- weights
I'm not sure you got all of it. Riddles of this nature usually take the form of, "What word becomes shorter when you add two letters to it?" The answer is "short." Alternatively, "What seven-letter word becomes longer when you take one letter away?" The answer is "lounger."
The answer is the word empty. Take away the e and you have the letters mpty. Take away the p and you have the letters mty. Take away the y and you have the letters mt.
