Answer:
i. No, Maurice statement is wrong.
ii. Stephan does not have sufficient pieces of wood to make the tray because the square inches required is more than what he has.
Step-by-step explanation:
Stephan's piece of wood measures; 18 inches in length and 12 inches in width.
Since the piece of wood has a shape of a rectangle,
the area of the piece of wood = length × width
= 18 × 12
= 216 square inches
According to Maurice's statement, he could make a tray that has a base of 1012 inches by 1012 inches.
The base has the shape of a square, so that;
the area of the base = length × width =
= 1012 ×1012
= 1024144 squared inches
This shows that Stephan does not have sufficient wood to make the tray because the square inches required is more than what he has.
