`text(525 000 square millimetres)`
`text(Solution 1:)`
`text(One example of the dimensions of a 5250 cm²)`
`text(rectangle can be: 525 cm × 10 cm)`
`text(Converting to millimetres:)`
`5250\ text(mm) xx 100\ text(mm) = 525\ 000\ text(square millimetres)`
`text(Solution 2:)`
`text(Scale factor of converting cm to mm = 10)`
`text(Scale factor of converting cm² to mm²)\ = 10 xx 10 = 100`
`:. 5250\ text(cm²) xx 100 = 525\ 000\ text(mm²)`
This plan shows 3 fenced paddocks.
Their areas are measured in hectares.
1 hectare = 2.47 acres.
The total area of the 3 paddocks in acres is closest to
`2.73` | `6.75` | `16.67` | `16.77` |
|
|
|
|
`16.67\ text(acres)`
`3/4` | `= 0.75` |
`2 1/4` | `= 2.25` |
`3 3/4` | `= 3.75` |
`text(Total acres)` | `=(0.75 + 2.25 + 3.75) xx 2.47` |
`=6.75 xx 2.47` | |
`=16.67\ text(acres)` |
