Answer:
123 pound.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : the ratio of the weight of an object on earth to the weight of the same object on pluto is 100 to 3.
To find : if and elephants weighs 4100 pounds on earth, find the elephants weight on earth .
Solution : We have given
Ratio of the weight of an object on earth to the weight of the same object on pluto = \(\frac{100}{3}\)
Let the weight of elephant on pluto = x
Then
\(\frac{100}{3}\) = \(\frac{4100}{x}\)
On cross multiplication
100 x = 4100 3.
On dividing both sides by 100
x = 41 * 3.
x = 123 pound
So, the weight of elephants weight on pluto is 123 pound.
Therefore, 123 pound.
