Question

A paper manufacturing company produces 70 tons of paper every hour. The weight of the paper produced per hour (in pounds) is _____.

  1. 140000
  2. 150000
  3. 14666
  4. 15466

The correct answer is: 140000


    2000 lb = 1 ton
    Then 70 tons = 2000 × 70 = 140000

    1 ton = 2000 pounds
    70 tons = 70 x 2000 pounds = 140000 pounds.

    Ashley's teacher asked her to bring 3 pieces of yarn, each no shorter than 0.8 m, for an art project. Ashley found a piece of old yarn at home that is 280 cm long. Does she have enough yarn to bring to school?

    230 erasers = 230 x 17 mm =3910 mm = 3.910 m ( 1 m = 1000 mm)

    Difference in time from 7 : 15 pm to 10 : 45 pm = 3 hr 30 mins.=3:30
    Length of 1 yarn = 0.8 m
    Length of 3 yarns = 3 x 0.8 = 2.4 m= 240 cm ( 1 m = 100 cm)
    Ashley has 280 cm of yarn, which is more than 240 cm . hence, she does have enough yarn to bring to school.
