Hmm weird answer choices :3
xD true
So we have a surface area of:\[\Large\rm A=375.2~m^2\]I'm going to write it like this:\[\Large\rm A=375.2~(\color{orangered}{m})^2\]We would like to replace meters with centimeters. How many centimeters in a meter? :)
A?
100 centimeters in a meter, yes? So we can do this,\[\Large\rm A=375.2~(\color{orangered}{m})^2\]\[\Large\rm A=375.2~(\color{orangered}{100cm})^2\]Replacing meter with 100 centimeters. When we square the 100 we get,\[\Large\rm A=375.2\times100~cm^2\] Although our surface area hasn't ACTUALLY grown in size, the number representing the area has gotten a lot larger since we're in centimers, yes? :)
So,A is correct
@zepdrix
A? 0_o no...
not a or c
B
Read my last post, it should get you to the correct answer -_- `Although our surface area hasn't grown in size`, `the number representing the area has increased since we're in centimers.`
