Answer:
Weight in 1982
Step-by-step explanation:
Given parameters:
Weight of penny in 1982 = 0.11 ounce
Weight of penny in 2013 = 0.09 ounce
Unknown:
Which penny weighs more = ?
Solution:
Simply, we are looking for which number is higher,
0.11 or 0.09
Let us find the differences;
if x is greater than y then, x - y must be positive
If 0.11 is greater then 0.09, then 0.11 - 0.09 must be positive
= 0.02, it is positive
The weight of a penny in 1982 is greater than that in 2013
