Answer:

The prefixes in the metric system are used to modify the basic units. The prefixes either make the unit a larger measurement, as in the case of meter to kilometer, or they make the unit a smaller measurement, as in the case of meter to millimeter.

The basic unit of length in the metric system is the meter. Grams are used to measure weight and liter is used to measure liquid capacity
besides, it is used  so that you can express very large and very small numbers in a short unambiguous manner.
Example Instead of saying "three thousand million" meters
They classify the decimal place of the basic unit. ie, the meter is classified with milli (1/1000), centi(1/100), deci (1/10), Deca (10), Hecto (100), Kilo (1000).

A sandbox 12ft. By 14 ft. requires that the sand be spread to a depth of 6 in. How many cubic feet of sand are needed?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

84 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for Volume. Volume of a box is:

V = Length (base) x Width (base) x Height (of rectangular prism/square)

Change each measurement to have the same measurement (ft -> in, or vice versa).

Note that 1 ft = 12 in.

6 in = 1/2 ft, because 6/12 = 1/2

Length = 12 ft

Width = 14 ft

Height = 1/2 ft

Solve. Plug in the corresponding number to the corresponding words.

V = 12 x 14 x 1/2

Simplify. Solve.

V = 12 x (14 x 1/2)

V = 12 x (14/2)

V = 12 x 7

V = 84

84 ft² is your answer.

Answer:

Length of the room is   180 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a rectangular room with dimensions:

width  =  70  ft       and  length    "x" (unknown)

Perimeter of a rectangle   is   2*w  +  2*x    and according to problem statement 500 ft of lights will fit exactly in room perimeter then:

2*70  +  2*x   =  500

140  + 2*x  =  500

2*x  =  500 - 140

2*x  = 360

x  = 360/2

x  =  180  ft
