Answer:

The area of a trench is 5.5 m² .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth

As given

Tanya has a garden with a trench around it.

The\ garden\ is\ a\ rectangle\ with\ width\ 2\frac{1}{2}\ m\ and\ length\ 2\ m.

i.e

The\ garden\ is\ a\ rectangle\ with\ width\ \frac{5}{2}\ m\ and\ length\ 2\ m.

Put in the above formula

Area\ of\ garden = \frac{5\times 2}{2}

                             = 5 m²

As given

The\ trench\ and\ garden\ together\ make\ a\ rectangle\ with\ width\ 3 \frac{1}{2}\ m\ and\ length\ 3 m.

i.e

The\ trench\ and\ garden\ together\ make\ a\ rectangle\ with\ width\ \frac{7}{2}\ m\ and\ length\ 3 m.

Area\ of\ garden\ with\ trench = \frac{7\times 3}{2}

Area\ of\ garden\ with\ trench = \frac{21}{2}

                                                  = 10.5 m²

Area of the trench = Area of garden with trench - Area of garden

Put the value in the above

Area of the trench = 10.5 m² - 5 m²

                               = 5.5 m ²

Therefore the area of a trench is 5.5 m² .

10 1/2 for area, you take length times width so for this you take 3 1/2 x 3 = 10 1/2

Answer:

Jordan

Step-by-step explanation:

Because each person is in debt the one with the least amount of dept will pay less. Think of it like this:

You owe the bank 85 dollars so your account balance is -85 since you owe money

if you were to owe 100 dollars then you owe more money.

Therefore owing 85 dollars is the least amount of money owed in this case
