We would be using conversion rates and dimensional analysis to solve this question.

The average weight of the chimpanzee in pounds is 114.73 lb

Step 1: 1 kg = 1000 g

Convert 52 kg to grams

1 kg = 1000g

52 kg = ?

Cross Multiply

52 kg x 1000g / 1 kg

= 52,000g

Step 2: Convert from grams to ounce

1 gram = 0.0353 ounce

52,000 g = ?

Cross Multiply

52,000g x 0.0353

= 1,835.60 ounces

Step 3: Convert from 0unces to pounds

16 oz = 1 lb

1835.6 = ?

Cross Multiply

1835.6 oz x 1 lb / 16

= 114.73 lb

Step 4: Using Dimensional analysis:

52 kg x  1000g/1 kg  x  0.0353 oz/ 1 gram  x  1 lb/16 0z  

= 114.73 lb

Therefore, the average weight of the chimpanzee in pounds is 114.73 lb.

Find the product. Simplify your answer x^2-y^2/6*12/x-y
Ratling [72]
= x^2 - y^2/6 * 12/(x-y)
= 6x^2 -y^2 * 72/(x-y)
= 6x^2(x-y) -y^2(x-y) * 72
= 6x^3 - 18x^2 -xy^2 + y^3 * 72
= 432x^3 - 1296x^2 -72xy^2 + 72y^3
