Question

Mr Gomez builds a path. He uses 22 pieces of slate that are 1.3 meters long each, and one piece of slate that is 2.5 meters long. How many meters long is the path if there is no space

Answer 1

Answer:

31.1 meters long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Gomez has:

22 pieces that are 1.3 meters long.

One piece 2.5 meters long.

We just need to multiply:

$22(1.3)=28.6\\1(2.5.)=2.5$

If we sum both magnitudes, we have: $28.6+2.5= 31.1$

Hence, the path is 31.1 meters long, since that there's no space between.
