Correct answer is E
Length = 59.6m Breath = 40.3m Perimeter = (59.6m + 40.3m) x 2 = 99.9 x 2 = 199.8m Actual measurement Perimeter = (60 + 40) x 2 = 100 x 2 = 200m Error = 200m - 199.8m = 0.2 Error =0.2/200 x 100/1 = 0.1%

4x4
Correct answer is E
\(56x^{-4} \div 14x^{-8}\)
= \(4x^{- 4 - (-8)}\)
= \(4x^{4}\)
Simplify: \((2\frac{1}{6} - 1\frac{2}{3}) \div 2\frac{2}{3}\).

10 2/5
Correct answer is A
\((2\frac{1}{6} - 1\frac{2}{3}) \div 2\frac{2}{3}\)
= \((\frac{13}{6} - \frac{5}{3}) \div \frac{8}{3}\)
= \(\frac{3}{6} \times \frac{3}{8}\)
= \(\frac{3}{16}\)
