when they say a hour of whatever exercise burns 500 calories for a person who weighs150 lbs:
how does that translate for me who weighs 113lbs (5foot1)?
Thank you.

the exercise was an example...
ok I rephrase: if a person of 150lbs exercise for 1 hour and burns 500 calories (hypothetical), how many calories a 113lb person would burn?

Whatever you heard is wrong because it takes a different time because soem exercises burn more calories than others. Here is a site that should help!

Base on Eistein's theory e=mc2, energy equals mass times the speed of light squared, with assumption that both walkers have the same speed and same environment, then the difference of energy is the mass of the body. The mass of 113lbs is likely around .8 of 150lbs, so perhaps about .8x500=400 calories.
