The answer would be Find 40% of 20 because you would round 43% down and 18 up. Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Find 40% of 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the race = 18 mile

The runner has run 43% of the race.

Total length completed by the runner = 43/100 * 18 = 7.74 miles

Among the given options:

1) 40% of 10 = 40/100 * 10 = 4

2) 40% of 20 = 40/100 * 20 = 8

3) 50% of 10 = 50/100 * 10 = 5

4) 50% of 20 = 50/100 * 20 = 10

The closest value with respect to the distance completed by the runner (7.74) from among the given options is the second one,namely,

Find 40% of 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

believe it or not, the area of any triangle is

baseline × height / 2

we have here 2 triangles, both with the same baseline (8 cm), but with 2 different heights : 6.5 cm and 4.6 cm.

so, their areas are

8 × 6.5 / 2 = 4 × 6.5 = 26 cm²

8 × 4.6 / 2 = 4 × 4.6 = 18.4 cm²

so, in total, the shaded region is

26 + 18.4 = 44.4 cm²
