Answers
Answer:
1. I weigh about 30 kilograms.
2. The weight of one child is 30 kg.
Then,
Weight of 12 children me put together = 12 × 30
= 360 kg
So, 12 children like me put together will weigh about 360 kg.
3. Whale shark weight was about 16000 kg.
Weight of 12 children me put together = 360 kg
Then, how much more does the whale shark weigh than 12 children,
= Whale shark weight - Weight of 12 children me put together
= 16000 – 360
= 15,640 kg
∴ the whale shark will weigh 15,640 kg more than the Weight of 12 children me put together.
