Answer:

160,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimations like this usually involve rounding to easy numbers to multiply. You could do this in a number of ways depending on your ability to keep track of factors in your head, but the easiest way (and what I assume your teacher is looking for) is to round to the nearest, largest-power-of-ten, which in this case is the hundreds. 786 is closest to 800, and 217 is closest to 200, and 200*800 is 160,000. No calculator required is the key. You can also be slightly more sure that this is reasonable because you rounded up for one and down for the other, approximately by the same amount, too.

The world’s largest round pizza was set in December 2012 by five Italian chefs. The diameter of this pizza was 131 feet. If this

Tems11 [23]

First find the area of the whole pizza.

The formula for area of a circle is Area = PI x r^2

The diameter is given as 131 feet, so r would be 131/2 = 65.5 feet.

I will use 3.14 for PI since the problem doesn't say what value to use.

Area = PI x 65.5^2

Area = 3.14 x 4290.25

Area = 13,471.39 square feet

Divide the total area by the number of pieces:

13,471.39 / 50 = 269.43 square feet

To find the length of the crust first find the circumference of the whole pizza:

Circumference = PI x diameter

Circumference = 3.14 x 131 = 411.34 feet

Now divide the total by the number of pieces:

411.34 / 50 = 8.23 feet

Each slice has an area of about 269.43 square feet and a crust length of 8.23 feet.

What time is 5 3/4 hours after 11:32 pm? Please show work, thank you.

poizon [28]

we have to first convert fraction of hours into minutes

1 hour is equivalent to 60 minutes

then 3/4 hour is - 3/4 of 60

when the of function is used we have to multiply the 2 numbers

then $\frac{3}{4} * 60 = \frac{3*60}{4} = \frac{180}{4} = 45$

3/4 of an hour is equivalent to 45 minutes

then we have to add 5 hours and 45 minutes to 11.32 pm

add 5.45 to 11.32

11.32

5.45 +

-------

16.77

then its 16 hours and 77 minutes

an hour has only 60 minutes so we subtract 60 minutes from 77 minutes and add that hour to 16 hours

16 hours + 1 = 17 hours

77 minutes - 60 minutes = 17 minutes

17 hours 17 minutes

time is given in pm therefore its a 12 hour clock

so we have to subtract 12 hours from 17 hours 17 minutes

17.17 hours - 12 hours = 5.17

the new time is 5.17 am of the next day
