Compare it to 1/2 (which is the same as 6/12)
Simplify 10^4 to 10000
8.5x10000-3.0x10^3
Simplify 8.5x*10000 to 85000x
85000x-3.0*10^3
Simplify 3.0x10^3 to 3*10^3
Answer 85000x-3*10^3
Hey there!
I think that it safe to say that this room is a rectangular prism. Therefore, the top and bottom (floor and ceiling) have the same area. We see that our floor dimensions are 12 cm long and 7 cm wide. This also applies to the ceiling. Let’s take our two sides and multiply then to find our area.
12(7)=84
Therefore, the area is 84 square centimeters.
I hope that this helps!
16w-15w =.
1w=20
1/1=20/1
W=20
