Most crayons are 3.625 inches long and use 2.95 square inches of paper to wrap around them. Jumbo crayons are a larger version that small children can hold easier. If the jumbo crayon is 6 inches long, how much paper is needed?

Respuesta :

Answer:

x=7.833 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

answer by using a ratio size/sq in:

3.625/2.95=(6+3.625)/x

2.95(6+3.625)/3.625=x
