kilograms is an average elephant's brain?

Answer 1

The weight of an average elephant's brain is 35.5 kilograms.

Step-by-step explanation:

An average elephant's brain weighs 34 kilograms more than an average man's brain. To find the weight of an average elephant's brain, we simply add 34 kilograms to the weight of an average man's brain.

According to the information given, an average man's brain weighs 1.5 kilograms. So, the weight of an average elephant's brain can be calculated as:

1. Weight of an average elephant's brain = Weight of an average man's brain + 34 kilograms
2. Weight of an average elephant's brain = 1.5 kilograms + 34 kilograms
3. Weight of an average elephant's brain = 35.5 kilograms
