Answer 4

can you write the percentage of the smallest size as a decimal?

(e.g. if it was allowed to be 1% smaller then the sides would be .99 of the nominal)

Answer 5

I still need help, what do i do to get the answer, did I do the steps wrong, what do I do to the sides to make is 1/20% Smaller, do I find out 1/20 first then convert it do decimal?

Answer 6

it is 1/20 % (not 1/20)

write 1/20 % as a decimal

Answer 7

1/20 = 0.05.


/ 100 is 0.0005%.

now what?

Answer 8

ok so that is the proportion by which the smallest side can vary from the nominal

so the smallest card is .9995 times the size of the nominal ON EACH SIDE

So the area of the smallest card is 8.5 * .9995 * 11*.9995

OK?

Answer 9

:D Thank you, so how do we get the nominal .9995, I never learned about that yet?


So, it is 93.406523375

Answer 10

it tells you that the nominal is 8.5 x 11 inches

1.20% is .0005 so the card can be 1-.0005 x the nominal = .9995 * nominal
