Question

Higher Order Thinking Some of the largest insects in the world

include the Rhinoceros Beetle, the Giant Walking Stick, and the

Giant Weta Beetle. How much longer is the Giant Walking Stick

than the Rhinoceros Beetle and the Giant Weta Beetle combined?

Rhinoceros Beetle

1670 cm

Giant Weta Beetle

y

Giant Walking Stick

Length 53 cm

87 cm

Answer 1

-1636cm

Explanation:

We are required to determine how much longer the Giant Walking Stick is compared to the Rhinoceros Beetle and the Giant Weta Beetle combined.

Length of the Rhinoceros Beetle=1670cm

Length of the Giant Weta Beetle=53cm

Length of the Giant Walking Stick =87cm

This is based on the assumption that the lengths provided are accurate in that order.

Length of the Rhinoceros Beetle and the Giant Weta Beetle combined = 1670+53=1723cm

Difference with Length of Giant Walking Stick= 87-1723= -1636cm

Since our result is negative, the Giant Walking Stick is actually SHORTER than the length of the Rhinoceros Beetle and the Giant Weta Beetle combined.

Answer 2

The answer is 16-7/10+8-5/10= 24-2/10 and then

Giant walking stick=53-3/10cm

so we do 53-3/10+24-2/10=77-5/10

So..... The giant walking stick is 77-5/10cm more longer than both beetles. ~This answer is for Some of the largest insects in the world include the rhinoceros beetle, the giant walking stick, and the giant weta beetle. How much longer is the giant walking stick than the rhinoceros beetle and the giant weta beetle combined?. ~Data= Rhinoceros beetle= 16-7/10 cm, Giant walking stick= Length 53-3/10 cm, Giant weta beetle= 8-5/10 cm. ~I hope this answer helped.
