What is the maximum number of glass tumblers each with a circumference of inches that can be placed rectangular on a table of 48" x 32".
(a) 48 (b) 32 (c) 50 (d) 96
What is the circumference?
the circ. is 4 pie
To find the maximum number of glass tumblers that can be placed on the rectangular table, we need to divide the length and width of the table by the circumference of each glass tumbler.
Let's start with the length of the table, which is 48 inches. Dividing this by the circumference of each glass tumbler will give us the number of tumblers that can fit in one row.
48 inches ÷ circumference of each glass tumbler
Since we don't know the circumference of each glass tumbler, we cannot calculate the exact number of tumblers that can fit in one row.
Therefore, without information about the circumference of each glass tumbler, we cannot determine the maximum number of tumblers that can fit on the table. The answer cannot be determined with the given information.
So the correct answer is (none of the above).
To find the maximum number of glass tumblers that can be placed on a rectangular table, we need to calculate how many tumblers can fit in both the length and width dimensions.
First, let's calculate the number of tumblers that can fit along the length (48 inches) of the table. Since the circumference of a tumbler is given, we know that the length of each tumbler is equal to its circumference. So, we divide the length of the table by the length of each tumbler:
Number of tumblers along the length = Length of the table / Length of each tumbler
Number of tumblers along the length = 48 inches / circumference of each tumbler
Next, let's calculate the number of tumblers that can fit along the width (32 inches) of the table:
Number of tumblers along the width = Width of the table / Length of each tumbler
Number of tumblers along the width = 32 inches / circumference of each tumbler
Finally, to find the maximum number of tumblers that can fit on the table, we multiply the number of tumblers along the length and width dimensions:
Maximum number of tumblers = Number of tumblers along the length * Number of tumblers along the width
Now, let's calculate the maximum number of tumblers:
Maximum number of tumblers = (48 inches / circumference of each tumbler) * (32 inches / circumference of each tumbler)
Without knowing the circumference of the glass tumblers, it is not possible to determine the maximum number of tumblers that can fit on the table. The answer options provided (a) 48, (b) 32, (c) 50, and (d) 96 are not accurate based on the information given.
