Two bottles and their labels are mathematically similar. The smaller bottle contains 0.512 litres of water and has a label with area 96 cm².
The larger bottle contains 1 litre of water.
Calculate the area of the larger label.

The area of the larger label is 187.5 square centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the two bottles are mathematically similar, then the label area is directly proportional to the capacity of the bottle. If we know that a 0.512 L-bottle has a label area of 96 square centimeters, then the label area of a 1-L bottle is determined by this simple rule of three:

The area of the larger label is 187.5 square centimeters.

a.) list the factors of 40.

1/2/4/5/8/10/20/40

b.) list the factors of 40 that represent the number of cans that could be on each shelf.

5

c.) how many different arrangements of cans are possible?

just one because if you put more on one shelf you will go way over 40 and the cabinet will probably break.

d.) what are the possible arrangements of the cans?

put 5 cans on each self to reach 40 cans in total.

e.) which arrangement uses all the shelves?

5 because you can put 5 cans on each shelf, and since there are 8 shelfs you are equally going to get 40 cans.
