Question

The area of the bottom of a 250 mL beaker is found to be 38.5 cm2. What is this area in square millimeters

Answer 1

Answer:

3580mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the area of 250mL beaker to be 38.5cm²

We need to convert the value to mm²

Using the conversion

1cm² = 100mm²

Using the equality postulate:

If 1cm² = 100mm²

35.8cm² = x mm²

Calculate x by cross multiplying

x mm² × 1 cm² = 35.8 cm² × 100mm²

x mm² = (35.8 cm² × 100mm²)/1cm²

x mm² = 3580mm²

Hence the area is square millimeters is 3580mm²
