Teophilus96:I really don't know. ended up with A>C and E>C. so I'm guessing C is one of the lightest. coupled with B. I guess. Modified******* the way the options were typed is quite confusing. The answer should be C. but the way the options were typed, one would think each options has 2 answers. |

Basically from simple analogy;
C<  <E>A>B in ascending order
Thus C is the smallest |

Oluwapresley:I chose C too.It is the right answer C is the lightest. |

A = 2.000B = 9.000C = 4.500D = 2.250E B = 0.500A = 4.500C = 2.250D = 1.125E C = 0.111A = 0.222B = 0.500D = 0.250E D = 0.222A = 0.444B = 2.000C = 0.500E E = 0.444A = 0.889B = 4.000C = 2.000D Apparently, C<E<A From lightest to heaviest, C<D<E<B<A Therefore C is the lightest... It really doesn't take a genius... 1 Like |
