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.

Answer:  Estimate: 36  ? units ? miles per hour ? feet per second?

Exact: 35.32142857  but if you are supposed to use significant digits, 35.32 is probably good.

Step-by-step explanation: For the estimate, round off the fractions to whole numbers, so multiply 6 x 6 to get 36

For exact I converted the mixed numbers to improper fractions, 5 3/4 = 23/4  and 6 1/7 = 43/7. Then multiplied the numerators 23 x 43= 989.  And denominators, 4x7=28.  

Divide numerator by denominator  989/28= 35.321428571
