The table is missing, so i have attached it.
Also, the correct question is;
The surface area of the East China Sea is k times the surface area of the Baltic Sea.
Work out the value of k.
Give your answer to the nearest whole number
Answer:
k = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
From the attached table,
Surface area of east china = 1.25 ├Ч 10^(6) km┬▓
Surface area of Baltic sea = 4.22 ├Ч 10^(5) km┬▓ = 0.422 ├Ч 10^(6) km┬▓
We are told that the surface area of East China Sea is k times that of the surface area of the Baltic Sea.
Thus;
1.25 ├Ч 10^(6) = k ├Ч 0.422 ├Ч 10^(6)
k = 1.25/0.422
k = 2.96
Approximating to whole number gives;
k = 3
