Answer:
11.5 in
Step-by-step explanation:
The large box is less expensive per ounce.
large box small box
cost 4.16 2.38
content 32oz 14oz
cost/oz 0.13 0.17
*4.16/32 *2.38/14
The large box is less expensive than the small box. The large box is cheaper by 0.04 per ounce.
The solution for this problem is just simple. It tells you to find the area in square feet. Thus, convert the units to feet first. The conversion you need to know are: 12 in = 1 ft and 3 ft = 1 yard.
Width = 42 in * 1 ft/12 in = 3.5 ft
Length = 10 yards * 3 ft/1 yard = 30 ft
Area = Length*Width = 30*3.5
<em>Area = 105 ft²</em>
11×24=quarts per day. That's 264.
264/12=full barrels per day. That's 22.
120/22=frequency of pick ups. That's 5.45. So the barrels get picked up every 5 and a half days.
