35% of 60 = (35/100)*60 = 0.35 * 60 = 21
30% of 80 = (30/100)*80 = 0.30 * 80 = 24
24 is greater than 21.
30% of 80 is greater.
Answer:
the area after 6 years is 3,473 km^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the area after 6 years is as follows:
= Area × (1 - decreased percentage)^number of years
= 4,800 km^2 × (1 - 5.25%)^6
= 4,800 km^2 × 0.9475^6
= 3,473 km^2
Hence, the area after 6 years is 3,473 km^2
The answer is 4 1/2 (four and a half).
