We don't have squid living in the lakes or rivers of our province in Canada so I can only imagine what a giant squid looks like. And I can only imagine how difficult it would be to lift one up to move it!!
I agree with your answer that 20 adults would be needed to lift the squid but I don't think your explanation of 5 X 25 = 125 is correct for coming up with the number 20.
Could you try this maths problem again? You can ask a parent or another member of your family to read the activity over and help you figure out how to calculate the answer. I'm afraid that we can't give you full points for this posting as it isn't complete enough...
Good luck!! I'll look again to see if you've had another try.
