Not to worry, here’s gpt’s answer:

To begin with, we need to know the average volume of a narwhal. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the average length of a male narwhal is about 16 feet (4.9 meters) and its weight is about 1,800 kg. The volume of a narwhal can be calculated by using the formula for the volume of a cylinder, where the radius is half of the length.

Volume of a cylinder = π × r^2 × h

Radius = length/2 = 4.9/2 = 2.45 meters

Height = 16 feet ≈ 4.9 meters

Volume of a narwhal = π × 2.45^2 × 4.9 ≈ 96.3 cubic meters

Next, we can estimate the volume of a banana. The volume of a banana may vary depending on its size and shape. For simplicity, let’s assume that a medium-sized banana has a volume of 100 cubic centimeters (cc) or 0.1 liters.

Now, we can divide the volume of a narwhal by the volume of a banana to get an estimate of the number of bananas needed to fill the narwhal’s volume.

Number of bananas = Volume of narwhal / Volume of banana

Number of bananas ≈ 96,300,000 cc / 100 cc = 963,000 bananas

Therefore, it would take around 963,000 bananas to fill the volume of one narwhal, although this estimate may not be very accurate due to the assumptions and approximations made.
