- If the maximum weight allowed on a given horse trailer is 3,000 kg, can an owner transport five horses weighing in at 700 kg each? Why or why not?
Answer Key/Rubric
- 1,948 mL
- 8 cups
- 16,000 mL
20 x 800 = 16000
- 25 pounds each
125 ÷ 5 = 25
- No
Reasons may include, but are not limited to:
- Five horses at 700 kg each is 3,500
700 x 5 = 3500 - 3,500 > 3,000
- The maximum number of 700 kg horses he can transport is 4
