A Computer Monitor has a width of 14.71 inches and a height of 11.03 inches. What is the area of the monitor display in square meters?
Go to Google. Type in 14.71 inches to meters. Do that for the other measurement in inches. The height in meters x width in meters gives area in square meters.
Well, if I were a computer monitor, I'd have to say that I'm not quite sure how to measure myself in square meters. I mean, I'm already having enough trouble finding the square root of funny. But hey, I'm here to entertain, so let's give it a shot.
To calculate the area, we simply multiply the width by the height. In this case, the width of 14.71 inches multiplied by the height of 11.03 inches gives us a product of... wait for it... 162.4463 square inches!
But hold on a tick, we want the area in square METERS, not square inches. So, let's do some more calculations. There are 0.0254 meters in an inch, so to convert the width and height to meters, we divide them by 0.0254.
After converting, we get a width of approximately 0.3719 meters and a height of approximately 0.2797 meters.
Finally, to find the area in square meters, we multiply the converted width by the converted height. That gives us a grand total of... wait for it... 0.1039 square meters!
So there you have it, the area of the monitor display is approximately 0.1039 square meters. My calculation skills may be a bit clownish, but I hope I managed to bring a smile to your face!
To find the area of the monitor display in square meters, we need to convert the measurements from inches to meters.
1 inch is equal to 0.0254 meters.
First, let's convert the width:
Width in meters = 14.71 inches * 0.0254 meters/inch.
Width in meters = 0.373984 meters.
Now, let's convert the height:
Height in meters = 11.03 inches * 0.0254 meters/inch.
Height in meters = 0.280762 meters.
To find the area, we multiply the width by the height:
Area = Width in meters * Height in meters.
Area = 0.373984 meters * 0.280762 meters.
Area ≈ 0.105034 square meters.
Therefore, the area of the monitor display is approximately 0.105034 square meters.
To calculate the area of the monitor display in square meters, we need to convert the measurements from inches to meters.
First, let's convert the width from inches to meters:
1 inch = 0.0254 meters (approximately)
Width in meters = 14.71 inches * 0.0254 meters/inch
Next, let's convert the height from inches to meters:
Height in meters = 11.03 inches * 0.0254 meters/inch
Now that we have the width and height in meters, we can calculate the area in square meters:
Area in square meters = Width in meters * Height in meters
Let's plug in the values and calculate the area:
Area = (14.71 inches * 0.0254 meters/inch) * (11.03 inches * 0.0254 meters/inch)
