Question

A table is 73.66 centimeters

tall. An iguana tank on the table is 76.34
centimeters tall. Will the table and tank fit
beneath a shelf that is 157.16 centimeters
off the floor? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

Yes. It will fit.

Explanation:

=> To fit a table and a tank underneath a shelf, the given space must be less or equal to the space taking by the table and the tank.

=> 73.66 + 76.34 < 157.16

=> 150 < 157.16

Since this table is true, the table and the tank can fit under the shelf.

Hoped this helped.

Answer 2

Yes

Explanation:

It will fit because 73.66 + 76.34 is 150cm which is less than 157.16cm
