China's area is about 3.7 million square miles. It is on the continent of Asia, which has an area of about 17.2 million square miles. About what percent of the Asian continent does China cover? A. About 10 B. About 15 C. About 17 D. About 22? (I need to know how to solve it as well if possible.)

The answer to your question is the letter D.About 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

China's area = 3 700000 mi²

Asia's area = 17 200000 mi²

Process

1.- Consider the Asia's area as 100% and use proportions to solve this problem

                   17 200000 100 mi²

                    3 700000  x

                    x = (3700000 x 100) / 17200000

- Simplification

                    x = 370000000 / 17200000

-Result

                    x = 21.51 ≈ 22                      

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
