Find the minimum and maximum possible areas of a rectangle measuring 6 km by 11 km.

1 answer:

3 0

Assuming your numbers are rounded to the nearest km, the minimum area will be ...
(5.5 km)·(10.5 km) = 57.75 km² . . . minimum

And the maximum area will be ...
(6.5 km)·(11.5 km) = 74.75 km² . . . maximum

_____
When a number is rounded to 6 km as the nearest km, its value may actually be anywhere in the range 6 km ± 0.5 km. If you really want to get technical about it, the ranges of possible dimensions are [5.5, 6.5) km and [10.5, 11.5) km, and the range of possible areas is [57.75, 74.75) km².

Answer:

225 necklaces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that they have the necessary amount of straws to match the beads then we can use the following simple equation to solve this problem.

t = b/12 ... where t is the total amount of necklaces and b is the number of beads you have

t = 2700 / 12

225 necklaces.

For 225 necklaces you would also need 1125 straws since each necklace requires 5 straws to be fully made. Therefore if you have this amount you should not run into any problems.
