Old Farmer MacDonald wants to build a pen to keep his chickens in. He has 36 meters of fence and plans to make a rectangular pen. Complete the chart to help Old MacDonald decide how to make his chicken pen so that he has the maximum area.

2 = 18

4 = 9

6 = 6

8 = 4.5

10 = 3.6

12 = 3

14 = 2.57 (2.6 simplified)

16 = 2.25 (2.3 simplified)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by dividing 36 (the whole amount of meter of fences)

by each number of the length

area                    width

36 divided by 2 = 18

36 divided by 4 = 9

36 divided by 6 = 6

36 divided by 8 = 4.5

36 divided by 10 = 3.6

36 divided by 12 = 3

36 divided by 14 = 2.57 (2.6 simplified)

36 divided by 16 = 2.25 (2.3 simplified)

i would say c is the best answer, hope it's right!

good luck! =)

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%
