What is HEAVIER? A kilo of SAND OR A kilo of GRAVEL? ..

Answer / rajendra

The answer lies in the question itself = 1 Kilo
so a kilo of any material weighs the same as another.,
wheras the quatity might vary.
Same question asked in other context will make sense, ie.
what is HEAVIER : A bag of Sand OR A bag of gravel, given
that the bag holds same quantity of material.
