• B.
  16,20,000 kg
• C.
  14,20,000 kg
• D.
  15,20,000 kg

Answer 1

The correct option is C

14,20,000 kg
Weight of a male sperm whale is 41,000 kg
Weight of 20 male sperm whales is 41,000 kg × 20 = 8,20,000 kg
Weight of a female sperm whale is 20,000 kg
Weight of 30 female sperm whale is 20,000 kg × 30 = 6,00,000 kg

Total weight of 20 male sperm whales and 30 female sperm whales = 8,20,000 kg + 6,00,000 kg = 14,20,000 kg
