A baby elephant weighs 150 pounds when born against 2 pounds per day during the first year how many days will it take the elephant to a total of 224 pounds
To calculate the number of days it will take for the elephant to reach a total of 224 pounds, we need to determine how many pounds the elephant needs to gain.
224 - 150 = 74 pounds
Next, we divide the total pounds needed by the pounds gained per day to find the number of days:
74 / 2 = 37 days
Therefore, it will take the baby elephant 37 days to reach a total of 224 pounds.
