Actual area = 42ft²
The actual area will simply be calculated as:
= 6 × 7
= 42 feet²
Decimal: Divide 16 by 25: 0.64
Percent: move the decimal 2 places to the left: 64, then add a percent sign: 64%
Answer:
No, her answer is unreasonable because 0.2 * 6 = 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Here in this question, we are trying to use an approximation to see if what was said to be the result of a calculation is reasonable as an answer.
Looking at her division, 2.76/6 = 0.19
To the nearest tenth , 0.19 is same as 0.2, now multiplying 0.2 by 6, what we have is 1.2 ( of which even 0.19 * 6 is expected to be less than this). we can see that this value is quite far from our expected answer of 2.76 which makes the answer an unreasonable one
Thus, the division 2.76/6 = 0.19 is not a reasonable answer
