Question

A young sumo wrestler decided to go on a special high-protein diet to gain weight rapidly and at a constant rate. After 888 months, he weighed 138138138 kilograms. He started at 909090 kilograms.

Answer 1

Given :

Initial weight of sumo wrestler, I = 90 kg.

Final weight of sumo wrestler, F = 138 kg.

Time taken, T = 8 months.

To Find :

Weight gain per month.

Solution :

Weight gain per month = ( Final weight - Initial weight ) ÷ Total number of month

`W = (138-90 )/(8)\ kg/month\\\\W = 6 \ kg/month`

Therefore, weight gain per month is 6 kg/month.

Hence, this is the required solution.
