if one elastic band holds 1800g, how many elastic bands would you need to suspend a 80kg adult?

answered below? sorry, but I don't see it. Will it help to know 1800 g = 1.80 kg?

To determine the number of elastic bands needed to suspend a certain weight, we need to calculate the number of bands required to support each unit of weight.
Given that one elastic band holds 1800g, which is equivalent to 1.8kg, we can calculate the number of elastic bands required to hold a certain weight by dividing the weight (in kg) by the weight per band (in kg).
In this case, to suspend an 80kg adult, we can use the following calculation:
Number of elastic bands = (Weight of adult / Weight per elastic band)
= (80 kg / 1.8 kg per band)
= 44.44 elastic bands
Since we cannot have partial elastic bands, we round up the result to the nearest whole number.
Therefore, you would need approximately 45 elastic bands to suspend an 80kg adult.
It's important to note that this calculation assumes that the elastic bands can handle the weight evenly and that there are no other factors, such as stretching or safety considerations, that need to be taken into account.
