GP 4 Week 8 Reflection (Due 5/22)
An object weighing 5 pounds on Earth will weigh 2 pounds on Mercury. The Statue of Liberty weighs 225 tons. What would it weigh on Mercury?
Since the statue of liberty would weigh 90 pounds. I got this by 5/2 then i got 2.5 . Then i dividid 225 by 2.5 to get the number 90. Alan Harold Jackson per 2

England 1 The Statue of Liberty will weigh 180,00 pounds on Mercury. I found my answer by fisrt 5/2 = 2.5 then i i did 225/2.5 = 90 then i did 90 X 2000.
After i figured out the problem i realized that the object losses 3 pounds. The staute of liberty doesn't weigh pound it was tons so i divded 225/3= 75 then round it to 75000
England 7 On mercury, the statue weighs 90 tons. I converted 225 tons to 450,000 pounds. I set up the proportion 5 over 450,000 equals 2 over x. Then, I cross multiplied and divided and got 180,000. I then converted 180,000 pounds to 90 tons.
If 2,000 pounds go into 1 ton and the statue weighs 225 tons then I would have to multiply 2000 times 225. When I did that I got 450,000. Then I had to multiply 450,000 times 2 since everything weighs 2 pounds on mercury if it was 5 pounds on earth. So it would weigh 900,000 pounds.

ReplyDeleteEveryone above is incorrect. You need to try again. You need to label your answer. Is it 90 tons or 90 pounds? Here's a hint.... 2000 pounds = 1 ton.

You have to do 225 x 2000 = 450000 x 2 = 900000 / 5 = 180000
