Question

The bee hummingbird is the smallest bird it can weight as little as 2 grams the largest bird the ostrich can weigh as much as 150 kilograms what percent of the weight of a bee hummingbird is the weight of an ostrich

Answer 1

Remark

Two remarks.

1. The weight of the ostrich is on the numerator of the ratio.

2. You have to change units of one of them to make the units the same.

Step One

Change the 150 kg to grams

150 kg * 1000 gram/1 kg = 150,000 grams

Step Two

Find the % of ostrich to hummingbird

Percent = (150,000 / 2) * 100%

Percent = 75000 * 100% = 7 500 000% larger.
