Which is heavier, a ton of feathers or a ton of bricks?

“A ton of bricks is heavier”

This answer is incorrect because a ton is a unit of weight, meaning both a ton of feathers and a ton of bricks weigh exactly the same.

“A ton of feathers is lighter”

This answer is wrong because, despite feathers being light individually, a ton of feathers still equals a ton in total weight, just like a ton of bricks.

“Bricks are heavier than feathers, so they must weigh more”

This reasoning is flawed as it focuses on the individual weights rather than the total weight; both are measured as a ton, making them equal.
