Question

Translate each sentence into a formula

Answer 1

1) Perimeter=2length+2width
This is the formula for finding the perimeter of a rectangle

2) Density=mass/volume
The “Quotient” is the answer to a division problem (like how the “sum” is the answer to an addition problem) which is why we know to divide mass and volume

3) Force = mass*acceleration
The “product” is the answer to a multiplication problem which is why we know to multiply mass and acceleration

4) surface area = 6*L^2
The formula used to calculate the area of a square is L^2. The problem tells us that surface area is the sum of all the faces of a 3D shape. Because there are 6 sides on a cube, we multiply L^2 by 6.

Hope this helps!
