Scale Weights

It is a reese round bar 1000lb bar. The height before hookup was 44 3/4 after hookup 45 1/2 and after wdh 44 3/4 on one side 44 7/8 on the other. The one side has 6 links the other 7. I could probably reduce it to 6 and take up the 1/8 but my arms were getting tired.
I am getting confused on the math. I weighed the truck with trailer attached and it was 6360 lbs, Trailer was 5560 and tv alone was 5680 (with full gas tank and me in it with all the hitch and bars)
So I thought if you take TV (hitched) - TV (unhitched) that gives you the tounge weight that is distributed across the vehicle. You then take that weight and add it to the weight of the trailer (5560) and you have the weight of the trailer. I must be missing something.
Thanks
