The lengths of a rectangle have been measured to the nearest tenth of a centimetre they are 87.3cm and 51.8cm what is the upper

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer: Area (upper bound) = 4527.7056 cm²

Perimeter (lower bound) = 278 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length and width of the rectangle have been ROUNDED to the nearest tenth. Let's calculate what their actual measurements could be:

LENGTH: rounded to 87.3, actual is between 87.25 and 87.34

87.25 is the lowest number it could be that would round it UP to 87.3

87.34 is the highest number it could be that would round DOWN to 87.3

WIDTH: rounded to 51.8, actual is between 51.75 and 51.84

51.75 is the lowest number it could be that would round it UP to 51.8

51.84 is the highest number it could be that would round DOWN to 51.8

To find the Area of the upper bound, multiply the highest possible length and the highest possible width:

A = 87.34 × 51.84 = 4527.7056

To find the Perimeter of the lower bound, calculate the perimeter using the lowest possible length and the lowest possible width:

P = 2(87.25 + 51.75) = 278

A school is holding a talent show. A group of six friends entered the talent show and won the first place prize of $45, which th

Answer:

In the second group the individual members received a larger fraction of the prize money

Step-by-step explanation:

Division by Sharing

A certain amount M can be evenly split among n parties by performing a division M/n.

The first group of six friends earned $45 and they split it evenly, i.e. the same amount goes to each member. Each of them received $45/6= $7.50 apiece.

The second group of four friends won the second-place prize of $35 and they split it evenly also. Each member received $35/4=$8.75.

By comparing both numbers, we see that 8.75 is a bigger fraction of 35 that 7.50 is of 45. Each member from the second-place price will receive more money than the first group.

We can conclude in the second group the individual members received a larger fraction of the prize money
