Question

Each sheet of metel is 0.5 cm thick if pustin stack 20 sheet on top of other how will the stack he?

Answer 1

Answer:

10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The thickness of each metal sheet is 0.5 cm.

If each is stacked on top of each other, then:

Thickness of one such sheet= 0.5 cm

∴ Thickness of 20 such sheets would be: (20 × 0.5) cm

= (20 × $\frac{5}{10}$) cm                                        [or (20 × $\frac{1}{2}$) cm]

= 10 cm.

================================================

∴ The combined thickness of 20 similar sheets, each of 0.5 cm, would be 10cm.
