Beatrice threw a stone one and seven fourteenths yards. Tilly threw a stone nine fourteenths of a yard. What is a reasonable estimate of the difference between their two throws?

The difference between the two throws is 6/7 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Beatrice throw=1 7/14 yards

Tilly throw=9/14 yards

Difference between the two throws=Beatrice throw - Tilly throw

=1 7/14 - 9/14

=21/14 - 9/14

= 21-9/14

=12/14

=6/7 yards

The difference between the two throws is 6/7 yards

the total estimated nappy use.=10,500,000

step-by-step explanation:

given that on an average the average baby uses 3528 napkins.

in a particular year 2014, the number of births were 299697 in new south wales.

rounding off the number of births to the nearest hundred thousand we have

no of birtsh = 300000

also rounding off the average usage to nearst thousand we get

average use of a baby = 3500

hence total number of nappy estimated to be used = 3500x300000

= 10,500,000

answer is 10,500,000 nappies
