Accepted Solution
A:
Answer:[tex]2,000\ \frac{cm^{2}}{min}[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:The correct question isMia paints interior walls at a rate of 12 m^2/h. At what rate does she paint in cm^2/min?Remember that[tex]1\ m=100\ cm[/tex][tex]1\ h=60\ min[/tex]Convert m^2/h to cm^2/minsubstitute the values[tex]12\ \frac{m^{2}}{h}=12\frac{(100)^{2}}{60}=2,000\ \frac{cm^{2}}{min}[/tex]
