Question

Karina and Perry are cleaning up litter in the park for community service hours. Karina and Perry both claim they have covered the greatest area. Who is correct? Justify your answer using mathematical reasoning.

Answer 1

Answer:

Perry's claim is correct while Karina is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Question is incomplete (See Attachment)

First, we need to determine the area covered by Karina and Perry

For Karina, there are 9 square boxes each of which has an area of 1 unit sq

So:

$Karina = 9 * 1\ unit^2$

$Karina = 9\ unit^2$

For Perry:

There are 18 square boxes, each of which has an area of 1 unit sq.

So:

$Perry = 18 * 1\ unit^2$

$Perry = 18\ unit^2$

Comparing both areas, we can conclude that Perry's claim is correct while Karina is incorrect
