Answer:
736 N
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the rectangular tile=length*breadth
=1.6*2.3 sq. metres
=3.68 sq . metres
Given, Maximum pressure sustainable by the tile=200N/sq.metres
Thus, the maximum force that can safely be applied to the tile=Pressure*Area
=200*3.68 N
=736 N
One Way:
We can change the mixed number to a decimal for comparing.

m =

m = 1.25 m
1.4 m > 1.25 m
Darren > Luke
Darren's jump was higher by (1.4-1.25)
0.15 m
Or another way change the decimal to a fraction and the mixed to an improper fraction too.

=

(Luke)
1.4 =

(Darren)
We need a common denominator to compare

(Luke)

(Darren)

(Luke)

(Darren)

Darren > Luke
By:

-

=

Which is also by
0.15 m
Darren jumps higher and by 0.15 m
