Nate is curious to learn how much elephants eat compared to the largest animal on Earth, the blue whale. He does some research and finds that a full-grown blue whale eats about 1,460,000 pounds of krill per year. Write and solve a question similar to Problem 3 about how much blue whales eat.

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of blue whales residing in a particular ocean is estimated to be four. Find the estimated amount of kills the blue whales would have consumed by the turn of the year.

Given that:

Amount of krills consumed per year = 1460000

Number of Blue whales = 4

Hence, the estimated consumption of the blue whales will be :

Number of Blue whales * estimated consumption per whale :

(4 * 1460000) = 5840000

Hence,

Estimated consumption of the Blue whales per year = 5.84 × 10^6
