Question

You measure a sheet of paper. The width is 8.47 inches and the length is 10.98 inches. What is the area of the paper in mks units (m2)?

Answer 1

SOLUTION - GIVEN

                   Width = 8.47 inches

                   Length = 10.98 inches

FIND OUT - Area of a paper in mks units.

TO PROOF -  Paper shape is like rectangle.

                        Formula

                       Area of a rectangle =  length × breadth

                                                        =  10.98 × 8.47 $inches^2$

                                                       =  93.0006$inches^2$

                   Now we require answer in mks units.

                 ( mks units stand for the length in meter, mass in kilogram & time in  

                  seconds.)

                 That means we require answer in meter unit.

                 1 inches = 0.0254 meter

                Area of a paper = 93.0006 × 0.0254 × 0.0254$meter^2$

                                          =  0.0600002671$meter^2$

                Hence proved
