To find how many times heavier a blue whale is compared to an elephant, we can divide the weight of a blue whale by the weight of an elephant:
(4 × 10^5 pounds) / (1 × 10^4 pounds) = 40
Therefore, a blue whale is approximately 40 times heavier than an elephant. So the correct answer is: 40 times heavier.
