1530.21 – Choir Risers


There are 125 students in the high school choir, standing on risers as they prepare to sing. If the average weight of the students is 132 pounds, what is the entire weight of the students on the risers, in tons?


Solution

125×1322000=8.25 tons\dfrac{125 \times 132}{2000} = 8.25 \text{ tons}

And what is the choir about to sing?
