Let’s solve each problem one by one. We’re looking for the
difference between two measurements — that means we subtract the smaller number from the bigger number.
---
1. Height: Gorgon = 2.5 meters, Wendigo = 1.8 meters
Difference = 2.5 – 1.8 =
0.7 meters
---
2. Footprints: Boogeyman = 30 cm, Werewolf = 25 cm
Difference = 30 – 25 =
5 centimeters
---
3. Weight: Invisible Man = 45 kg, Bigfoot = 62 kg
Difference = 62 – 45 =
17 kilograms
---
4. Monster Speed: Mummy = 7 m/s, Yeti = 9 m/s
Difference = 9 – 7 =
2 meters per second
---
5. Arm Span: Frankenstein = 1.2 m, Dracula = 0.9 m
Difference = 1.2 – 0.9 =
0.3 meters
---
6. Body Length: Chupacabra = 5.6 m, Mothra = 4.9 m
Difference = 5.6 – 4.9 =
0.7 meters
---
7. Tail Length: Banshee = 3.5 m, Jersey Devil = 2.9 m
Difference = 3.5 – 2.9 =
0.6 meters
---
8. Claw Size: Kraken = 15 cm, Jabberwocky = 12 cm
Difference = 15 – 12 =
3 centimeters
---
9. Jump Distance: Minotaur = 4 m, Siren = 3.2 m
Difference = 4 – 3.2 =
0.8 meters
---
10. Roar Volume: Leviathan = 90 decibels, Gremlin = 105 decibels
Difference = 105 – 90 =
15 decibels
---
Final Answer:
1. 0.7 meters
2. 5 centimeters
3. 17 kilograms
4. 2 meters per second
5. 0.3 meters
6. 0.7 meters
7. 0.6 meters
8. 3 centimeters
9. 0.8 meters
10. 15 decibels
