Answer:

a) If he ordered 100 feet of tape, will he have enough tape to wrap 28 swords?

No he would not

b) How much will he have left over or how much more will he need?

= He would have 144 inches left over.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sword maker in the cove ordered a special tape to wrap the sword handles with. He knew each sword would need 48 inches of tape. If he ordered 100 feet of tape, will he have enough tape to wrap 28 swords? How much will he have left over or how much more will he need?

From the above question, each sword would need 48 inches of tape

He would need to wrap 28 swords, hence:

1 swords = 48 inches

28 swords = x

x = 28 × 48 inches

= 1344 inches of tapes

Therefore to cover each sword he would need a total of 1344 inches of tape.

He ordered 100 feet of tape

We convert 100 feet to inches

1 foot = 12 inches

100 feet = x

x = 100 × 12 inches

x = 1200 inches

Hence, he ordered 1200 inches of tape.

a) If he ordered 100 feet of tape, will he have enough tape to wrap 28 swords?

100 feet = 1200 inches of tapes

To wrap 28 swords he would need 1344 inches of tape hence, he would not have enough tape to wrap 28 swords.

b) How much will he have left over or how much more will he need?

= 1344 inches - 1200 inches

= 144 inches

He would have 144 inches left over.

Gemiola [76]
If 100 cats killed 100 mice in 100 days, you can say that each cat killed one mouse the day after the last cat. So, if four cats killed four mice, and we're going of off the same basis that each cat killed one mouse the day after the last cat, then the answer would be 4.

Jasmine created a scale drawing of her room. She used a scale of 1 in:3 feet. The drawing is 8 inches long by 6 inches wide. Wha
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The area of the room is 432 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use the ratio method to solve the question

∵ The scale drawing of the room is 1 inch: 3 feet

→ That means each 1 inch in the drawing represents 3 feet in real

∵ The drawing is 8 inches long by 6 inches wide

∴ The drawing length of the room = 8 inches

∴ The drawing width of the room = 6 inches

→ By using the ratio method

→  inches  :  feet

→  1            :  3

→  8           :  L

→  6           :  W

→ By using the cross multiplication

∵ 1 × L = 8 × 3

∴ L = 24

∴ The actual length of the room is 24 feet

∵ 1 × W = 6 × 3

∴ W = 18

∴ The actual width of the room is 18 feet

Use the formula of the area of the rectangle to find the area of the room

∵ Area of rectangle = length × width

∴ Area of the room = 24 × 18

∴ Area of the room = 432 feet²

∴ The area of the room is 432 square feet
