Answer 1

4,500LB greater than 2 1/5T

Answer 2

Option A is correct.

4,500 lb _<__ 2 1/5 T

Explanation:

Use conversion:

1 T = 2204.62 Ib

Given the statement:

4,500 lb ___ 2 1/5 T

then;

Since, 1 T = 2204.62 Ib

then;

`(11)/(5)` T =
`(11)/(5) \cdot 2204.62 = 4850.164` Ib

⇒
`4500 < 4850.164`

therefore, 4,500 lb _<__ 2 1/5 T
