Answer: 81 units²
Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, remember that the formula for the area of a square is 4s.
Therefore, since the perimeter of the given square is 36, we have 36 = 4s and dividing both sides by 4, 9 = s.
Now, remember that the formula for the area of a square is s² and since the length of a side of the given square is 9, we have (9)² or 81.
So the area of a square that has a perimeter of 36 is 81 units².
3 x 12 would equal 36, +1 would make it 37. Since there is no space in between 2 and the (, you multiply it. 37 x 3 = 111
So, Jeff should order 111 books
Answer:
11 people will get both the prizes.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question we need to find common integral multiples of 5 and 7 under 400. As you can see in the figure 35th person is the first one to get both ipod and psp. The LCM (least common multiple) of 5 and 7 which is 35 (!!! <em>I hope you know how to LCM of two integers </em>).
Therefore the integral multiples of 35 will be same as the common multiples of 5 and 7. So, figuring out the number of integral multiples of 35 under 400 will give the answer.
To do that divide the number 400 with 35. On performing the division the quotient will be 11 and the remainder will be 15.
Therefore 11 persons out of 400 will get both the prizes.
Similarly if you want to find the number of person getting ipod then divide 400 with 5. The quotient will be 80. ∴ 80 people will get ipod.
And for psp, divide 400 with 7. The quotient will be 57. ∴ 57 people will get psp.
In these divisions, consider just the quotient, here remainder is of no use.
