Question

1. A certain ceiling is made up of tiles. Every square meter of ceiling requires 10.75 tiles. Fill in the table with the missing values. square meters of ceiling number of tiles 1 1 10 100 a​

Answer 1

Given:

Consider the below table attached with this question.

Every square meter of ceiling requires 10.75 tiles.

To find:

The missing values in the table.

Solution:

We have,

1 square meter of ceiling =  10.75 tiles.      ...(i)

Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to 1 square meter of ceiling is 10.75.

Multiply both sides by 10.

10×1 square meter of ceiling =  10×10.75 tiles.

10 square meter of ceiling =  107.5 tiles.

Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to 10 square meter of ceiling is 107.5.

Divide both sides by 10.75 in (i).

$\dfrac{1}{10.75}$ square meter of ceiling = 1 tile.

Multiply both sides by 100.

$\dfrac{100}{10.75}$ square meter of ceiling = 100 tiles.

On approximating the value, we get

9.3 square meter of ceiling = 100 tiles.

Therefore, the square meters of ceiling corresponding to 100 tiles is about 9.3.

Multiply both sides by a in (i).

a×1 square meter of ceiling =  a×10.75 tiles.

a square meter of ceiling =  10.75a tiles.

Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to a square meter of ceiling is 10.75a.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Consider the below table attached with this question.

Every square meter of ceiling requires 10.75 tiles.

To find:

The missing values in the table.

Solution:

We have,

1 square meter of ceiling =  10.75 tiles.      ...(i)

Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to 1 square meter of ceiling is 10.75.

Multiply both sides by 10.

10×1 square meter of ceiling =  10×10.75 tiles.

10 square meter of ceiling =  107.5 tiles.

Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to 10 square meter of ceiling is 107.5.

Divide both sides by 10.75 in (i).

square meter of ceiling = 1 tile.

Multiply both sides by 100.

square meter of ceiling = 100 tiles.

On approximating the value, we get

9.3 square meter of ceiling = 100 tiles.

Therefore, the square meters of ceiling corresponding to 100 tiles is about 9.3.

Multiply both sides by a in (i).

a×1 square meter of ceiling =  a×10.75 tiles.

a square meter of ceiling =  10.75a tiles.

Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to a square meter of ceiling is 10.75a.
