Statue of Liberty Bonus Challenge
1. Here are some facts about the statue of liberty:
*Weight of copper used is 62,000 lbs.
* Weight of steel used is 250,000 lbs.
* Weight of concrete used is 54,000,000 lbs.
How much does the copper, steel and concrete weigh altogether?
Several of you! So some of you have an advantage in coming up with the answer!
2. If the statue was moved in 350 individual pieces and packed in 214 crates, on average, how many individual pieces were packed in each box?
