Question

If the average football player weighs 250 pound, how much would the starting defense weigh? (There are 11 players on each team on the field)

Answer 1

2750

Explanation:

As there are 11 players on the field, each averaging 250 pounds, this means that we can add 250 11 times, 1 for each player. Another way to say this would be to multiply 250 and 11, as we are adding 250 11 times. Our answer is then 250*11 = 2750.
