Not drawn to scale, thanks.
What they're trying to get you to think about with this question is what are the consequences of measurements "correct to the nearest centimeter."
When our numbers are approximations, meaning they're inexact, and we use them in calculations, the things we compute will also be inexact approximations. This problem is trying to get us to understand how inexact an area calculated with inexact numbers can be.
We're interested in the greatest possible area of the shaded region. That will happen when the outer numbers are as big as they can be and the inner white region numbers are as small as they can be because we subtract the white rectangle from the big rectangle to get the shaded area.
If these measurements were exact we'd have a shaded area of
We're allowed to adjust the numbers so that the numbers here are still arguably the nearest centimeter.
Wow, big difference.
Final answer: 515 square centimeters

Add the exponents and keep the same base. Then reciprocal it and change the sign of the exponent. Then the value of the exponent expression is 0.5.
<h3>What is an exponent?</h3>Exponential notation is the form of mathematical shorthand which allows us to write complicated expressions more succinctly. An exponent is a number or letter is called the base. It indicates that the base is to raise to a certain power. X is the base and n is the power.
The exponent expression is 2³ × 2⁻⁴ can be simplified.
Add the exponents and keep the same base. Then we have
2³ × 2⁻⁴ = 2⁽³⁻⁴⁾
2³ × 2⁻⁴ = 2⁻¹
Then find the reciprocal and change the sign of the exponent.
The value is 0.5.
