You are building a tabletop. You will use the plan shown, except that you will make all dimensions 2 1/2 time as large. What will be the area of your tabletop?

Sagot :

Answer:

109.375

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to multiply all of the lengths and widths by 2 1/2 in order to make the dimensions 2 1/2 times larger.

For length:

[tex]5\frac{1}{4}[/tex]  x  [tex]2\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 13.125 or [tex]13\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

For width:

[tex]3\frac{1}{3}[/tex]  x  [tex]2\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 8.333 or [tex]8\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Then to find the area use the equation:

A = l x w (Area = length x width)

And plug in the values:

A = [tex]13\frac{1}{8}[/tex]  x  [tex]8\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{875}{8}[/tex] or [tex]109\frac{3}{8}[/tex] or 109.375
