Question

Four people have found the perimeter of a forest using different methods their results are given in the table Order them from least to greatest A)Jason,Mika,Leon B)Ashley,Jason,Leon C)Mika,Ashley,Jason,Leon D) Leon,Mika,Jason,Ashley

Answer 1

LEON (2.1), JASON (2.4), ASHLEY (2.5), MIKA (2.6)

Explanation:

To order their perimeter from the least to the greatest, express all perimeters in decimals:

LEON = √17 - 2 = 4.1 - 2 = 2.1

MIKA = 1 + π/2 = 1 + 22/7*½ = 1 + 22/14 = 1 + 1.6 = 2.6

JASON = 12/5 = 2⅖ = 2.4

ASHLEY = 2.5

From least to greatest, we have: LEON (2.1), JASON (2.4), ASHLEY (2.5), MIKA (2.6)
