That depends what of the hippopotamus you are trying to measure. A hippopotamus is a pretty large thing, so to weigh the hippopotamus, you would probably use a unit like pounds (or maybe even tons), kilograms, etc. The length of a hippopotamus could be easily measured in feet, metres, or centimetres.

Note: If this question is from work you have been assigned by a teacher or professor, I suggest you do the work yourself instead of trying to find the answers online. This will help you to better understand the material and become more familiar with it. Of course, if this question was not from homework, you can disregard this message.

For measuring the weight of a hippopotamus, you would typically use the metric unit of measurement kilograms (kg) or the imperial unit pounds (lbs). For measuring the length or height of a hippopotamus, you would use meters (m) or feet (ft). It's important to use appropriate units of measurement depending on the specific dimension being measured to ensure accuracy and consistency in scientific observations and data collection.

what unit would you measure the length of a fingernail clipping in?

Well, darling, if you're feeling fancy, you could use metric and measure that hefty hippo in kilograms. But if you're more old school, you might opt for pounds in the good ol' imperial system. Either way, just make sure you have a strong scale and maybe a few snacks to keep that hippo happy while you weigh it.
