1. I told you I wanted 85 square dekameters of cashmere, and I want it here tomorrow!

2. What is the volume of water in a rectangular swimming pool that is 18 m long and 10 m wide, which is 2.5 m deep? Give the answer in KILOLITERS.

3. 1 kiloliter, kl, corresponds to one cubic meter of fluid. Therefore, what we need to do is figure out how many ‘cubic meters’ of water we have.

4. What is the volume of water in a rectangular swimming pool that is 18 m long and 10 m wide, which is 2.5 m deep? Give the answer in KILOLITERS. 1 kiloliter, kl, corresponds to one cubic meter of fluid. Therefore, what we need to do is figure out how many ‘cubic meters’ of water we have. The volume of water is length times width times depth, since this is a rectangular pool… so that is (18)(10)(2.5) = 450, and that is in cubic meters.

Give the answer in KILOLITERS. 1 kiloliter, kl, corresponds to one cubic meter of fluid. Therefore, what we need to do is figure out how many ‘cubic meters’ of water we have. The volume of water is length times width times depth, since this is a rectangular pool… so that is (18)(10)(2.5) = 450, and that is in cubic meters. Therefore, the pool holds 450 kl of water. Note that this is 450,000 liters of water!

6. How many times larger is a square dekameter than a square meter?

7. One dekameter is ten meters, so a square dekameter is a square, 10 meters on a side.

8. How many times larger is a square dekameter than a square meter? One dekameter is ten meters, so a square dekameter is a square, 10 meters on a side. Since the area is length times width, one square dm is 100 square meters; so it is 100 times as large as a square meter!

9. Determine the cost, in dollars, of 5.2 kg of sabu dhana, if sabu costs $2.60 per kg. This is, by the way, a by-product of tapioca.

10. The total cost is the number of kg times the cost per kg. So here we multiply 5.2 times 2.60. The result is $13.52, the cost of the sabu!

11. A jet can travel 1 km on 17 kg of fuel. How many metric tonnes of fuel will the jet use flying a distance of 4320 km?

12. Note that the total fuel used is (4320)(17) = 73440 kg.

13. A jet can travel 1 km on 17 kg of fuel. How many metric tonnes of fuel will the jet use flying a distance of 4320 km? Note that the total fuel used is (4320)(17) = 73440 kg. There are 1000 kg in one metric tonne (see p 197!)

14. A jet can travel 1 km on 17 kg of fuel. How many metric tonnes of fuel will the jet use flying a distance of 4320 km? Note that the total fuel used is (4320)(17) = 73440 kg. There are 1000 kg in one metric tonne (see p 197!) Therefore, there will be 73.440 metric tonnes of fuel used.

15. A 0.25 ounce bottle of Chanel perfume costs $80. What is the cost per gram?

16. On page 207, we see some useful conversions in a table.

17. A 0.25 ounce bottle of Chanel perfume costs $80. What is the cost per gram? On page 207, we see some useful conversions in a table. We see 1 ounce = 28 grams, and therefore this bottle contains how many grams?

18. A 0.25 ounce bottle of Chanel perfume costs $80. What is the cost per gram? On page 207, we see some useful conversions in a table. We see 1 ounce = 28 grams, and therefore this bottle contains how many grams?

19. A 0.25 ounce bottle of Chanel perfume costs $80. What is the cost per gram? On page 207, we see some useful conversions in a table. We see 1 ounce = 28 grams, and therefore this bottle contains how many grams? Therefore, we divide $80 by 7, the number of grams, and get $11.43 per gram, approximately.
