Question

Last Monday, Luis's mother gave birth to twins and named them Ashley and Umaima. When they were first born, Ashley weighed 2.82.8 2.8 2, point, 8 kilograms , and Umaima weighed 2.52.5 2.5 2, point, 5 kilograms and was 4949 49 49 centimeters tall. How much did the babies weigh in total?

Answer 1

To clarify the question:
Ashley weighed 2.8 kilograms at birth.
Umaima weighed 2.5 kilograms at birth.
Umaima being 49 centimeters tall has nothing to do with the question, since the question asks for weight only.

Add their weights together.


`2.8 + 2.5 = 5.3`

The twins weighed 5.3 kilograms together.
