Question

The mass of a sheep is about 6X10^1 kg. The mass of an ant is about 3X10^-3 kg. About how many times more mass does a sheep have than an ant?

Answer 1

Given that average mass of an ant grams.

Given that average mass of a giraffe Kilograms.

Now we have to find about how many times more mass does a giraffe have than an ant. Before carring out any comparision, we must make both units equal.

Like convert kilogram into gram or gram into kilogram.

I'm going to convert kilogram into gram using formula

1 Kg = 1000 g

So the average mass of a giraffe grams.

Now we just need to divide mass of giraffe by mass of ant to find the answer.

=666666666.667

Hence final answer is which is approx 666666666.667.

Hope this Helps!
