We know that
area of the tent=length*breath
length=240 cm---convert to m---> 240/100----> 2.40 m
breath=170 cm----convert to m---> 170/100----> 1.70 m
find the area
area=2.40*1.70-----> area=4.08 m²
therefore
the answer is
<span>the friend's statement is incorrect the area is 4.08 m</span>²
There are two possibilities, and we don't know which situation is true.
<em>#1).</em> School is in the middle, between home and grandparents.
Home --------- 3/8 ----------- School --------- 2/8 ------- Grandparents .
If this is true, then in the whole day, Tasha walks
(3/8 + 2/8 + 2/8 + 3/8) = 10/8 = <u>1.25 miles</u> .
===========================================
<em>#2):</em> Grandparents house is in the middle, between home and school.
Tasha passes by them on her way to school, and stops there to visit
on her way back home.
Home ------- 1/8 ------- Grandparents ---------- 2/8 ---------- School
If this is true, then in the whole day, Tasha walks
(3/8 + 2/8 + 1/8) = 6/8 = <u>3/4 mile</u> .
