At the zoo brooke learned that one of the rhinos weight 4,897 pounds, one of the giraffe weight 2,667 one of the african elephant weighs 12,456 pounds, and one of the komoda weights 123 pounds. what is the combination weight of the disease african elephant and the giraffes?

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have

he has 140 chickens because he has 10 times more chickens than ducks and he has 14 ducks so 14*10=140
