Question

If a certain blood cell has a diameter of 0.008 millimeter, and a certain muscle cell has a diameter of 0.07 millimeter, then the diameter of the muscle cell is how many times the diameter of the blood cell?

(A) 0.1
(B) 0.8
(C) 1.14
(D) 5.60
(E) 8.75

Answer 1

The correct answer will be option- E

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the ratio of the diameter of the muscle cell to the diameter of the blood cell we will have to calculate using mathematical principles.

The diameter of the blood cell- 0.008 millimeter

The diameter of the muscle cell- 0.07 millimeter

Ratio =
`\frac{\text{diameter of the muscle cell}}{\text{ diameter of the blood cell}}`

=
`(0.07)/(0.008)`

=
`8.75`

Thus, option- E is the correct answer.
