Step-by-step explanation:

elephant: 566.5 kilograms, giraffe: 164.8 kilograms, lion: 193.8 kilograms, Bengal tiger: 224.4kilograms, giant panda: 122.4 kilograms

Answer:

[tex]5.5\times 10^{3}>1.6\times 10^{3}>2.2\times 10^{2}>1.9\times 10^{2}>1.2\times 10^{2}[/tex]      

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Weights of zoo animals.

To find :  Arrange the zoo animals from greatest to least according to their weights?

Solution :

Write the weight in simpler number.

Elephant weight

[tex]E=5.5\times 10^{3}\text{ kg}=5.5\times1000=5500\text{ kg}[/tex]

Giraffe weight

[tex]G=1.6\times 10^{3}\text{ kg}=1.6\times1000=1600\text{ kg}[/tex]

Lion weight

[tex]L=1.9\times 10^{2}\text{ kg}=1.9\times100=190\text{ kg}[/tex]

Bengal Tiger weight

[tex]T=2.2\times 10^{2}\text{ kg}=2.2\times100=220\text{ kg}[/tex]

Giant Panda weight

[tex]P=1.2\times 10^{2}\text{ kg}=1.2\times100=120\text{ kg}[/tex]

We have seen that,

5500>1600>220>190>120

i.e. E>G>T>L>P

From greatest to least the weight is

[tex]5.5\times 10^{3}>1.6\times 10^{3}>2.2\times 10^{2}>1.9\times 10^{2}>1.2\times 10^{2}[/tex]
