More than 2,300,000 limestone and granite blocks were pushed, pulled, and
dragged into place on the Great Pyramid.
Each stone block within the pyramid weighs approximately 2267.96 kilograms
(2.5 tons). Therefore the total weight of the great pyramid of Khufu is
approximately: 2,300,000 x 2267.96 = 5,216,308,000 kilograms (5,750,000
tons).
