How many 0.01 spheres of meteoric dust could sit on a line that is one millimeter long?

OpenStudy (austinl):

0.01 I assume that is a portion of 1 meter? If not, what measurement is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Surface tension causes molten meteoric material to form spheres ranging from less than 0.01 millimeter to about one millimeter in diameter. a. Draw a circle that is 1 millimeter in diameter. b. How many 0.01 spheres of meteoric dust could sit on a line that is one millimeter long? ______________________ I really don't know how to answer this

OpenStudy (austinl):

Ok, so if that is 0.01mm, how many can rest on a line 1mm long. \[0.01\times x = 1\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I really don't know

OpenStudy (austinl):

\[x = \frac{1}{0.01}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thanks

OpenStudy (austinl):

No problem.
