a baby elephat weighs 150 pounds when born it gain 2 pounds per day during the first year how many days will it take the elephant to gain a total of 224 pounds
To find the number of days it will take for the elephant to gain a total of 224 pounds, we can set up the following equation:
224 = 150 + 2d
where d represents the number of days.
Simplifying the equation, we get:
74 = 2d
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we find:
d = 37
Therefore, it will take the elephant 37 days to gain a total of 224 pounds.
