Question

A truck weighs 2 tons. The camper it is pulling weighs 3,200 pounds. Which is heavier, and by how much?

Answer 1

The truck is heavier. One ton is equal to 2,000 pounds, so 2 tons is equal to 4,000 pounds. So now we take 4,000 and subtract 3,200 and we get 800. The truck is heavier than the camper by 800 pounds. I hope that this answer helped!
