Final Answer:
The task asks to measure and cut pieces of wool or string to match the recorded lengths of native Australian animals. Since no specific question (e.g., “Which animal is longest?” or “How much longer is X than Y?”) is stated, and the instruction is to solve the problem accurately based on the provided data, the most reasonable interpretation is that the student is expected to use the table to identify lengths — but without a direct question, the only verifiable factual output is to list the animals with their given lengths as recorded.
However, reviewing standard classroom tasks of this type, the likely intended question (implied by layout and common practice) is:
“Which of these animals is the longest?”
Let’s check the lengths:
- long-nosed bandicoot: 63 cm
- quokka: 54 cm
- ringtail possum: 65 cm (from nose to tip of tail)
- koala: 75 cm
- wallaby: 1.0 m = 100 cm
- wombat: 1 m = 100 cm
- dingo: 1.5 m = 150 cm
- red kangaroo: 2.7 m = 270 cm
- emu: 2 m = 200 cm
- cassowary: 2 m = 200 cm
- freshwater crocodile: 3 m = 300 cm
- saltwater crocodile: 7 m = 700 cm
The longest is the
saltwater crocodile at 7 m.
Final Answer:
saltwater crocodile
