Pennies are small so, if would be more accurate and have whole numbers. If u measured with an inch or meter, u would get a fraction for an answer.

Answer:

Because you will get whole numbers in milimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a penny is small, you would need to use small units to measure it, otherwise you will end up with a scientific notation number, or with large decimals in order to be able to express its measurements, with milimeters you will only get whole numbers and can be more exact.

Which set is closed under the operation multiplication?

oee [108]

I have another set of choices here:

A. {0.5, 1, 2}

B. {1, 2, 4}

C. {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

D. {0}

If you multiply two numbers from a closed set the answer is in the set.
So A is not closed because 2 x 2 = 4 which isn't in the set. Only 0.5, 1, and 2 are in set A. 

Try multiplying the largest numbers in sets B, C, and D by themselves. You will soon discover the closed set.
