Answer: 1. When you estimate, it is not an exact measurement. 3ft 8 in gets rounded to 4ft and 12 ft 3 in rounds to 12ft. now find the perimeter. P=2l+2w P= 2*12 +2*4 P=32feet

2. 3ft 8in = 3 8/12 or reduced to 3 2/3  12ft 3in = 12 3/12 or reduced to 12 1/4   The fractional part is referring to a fraction of a foot.

3. The perimeter of the room is P=2l+2w or P=2(12 1/4) + 2(3 2/3) p=24 1/2 + 7 1/3  P= 31 5/6 feet

4. The estimate and the actual are very close. They are 1/6 of a foot apart.

5a. Total baseboard 31 5/6ft - 2 1/4 ft = 29 7/12 feet needed.

5b. Take the total and divide it by 8ft  = 29 7/12 divided by 8= 3.7  You are not buying a fraction of a board so you would need 4 boards.

Please help!!! I will give brainliest but only if you try and help.
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

<h2>____</h2><h3>1260 </h3><h2>____</h2>

Since we have to predict, we can use ratios to help us solve this.

12 said yes out of 72 randomly chosen, SO,

if 210 would say yes (goes to play), how many is total??

12 is to 72 AS 210 is to HOW MUCH (let it be x)??

We can setup ratio, cross multiply, and solve for x:

= 12/72= 210/x

= 12x = 210*72

=12x = 15,120

=x = 15,120/12

<h2>=x =1260</h2>
