Well you have to convert randy's cat's weight from grams to kilograms. 1000 grams equals 1 kilogram so 5000 grams equals 5 kilograms. Randy's cat weighs 5 kilograms. So 135 - 5 = 130 kilograms. The tiger is 130 kilograms greater than Randy's cat

Answer 2

Randy's cat if 5 kilograms, so therefore the tiger's mass is 27 times larger than the mass of Randy's cat.
