Photo Storage Matching Ed54B7
1. **Problem 1:** Erin takes photos of size 3.6 MB each. How many photos can she store on a 1 GB memory card?
2. **Problem 2:** Sue has a 32 GB memory card and wants to store about 13000 photos. What photo size should she use?
---
### Problem 1: Number of photos Erin can store
1. We know 1 GB = 1024 MB (since 1 GB = 1024 megabytes).
2. Each photo size = 3.6 MB.
3. Number of photos = Total memory / Size per photo = $$\frac{1024}{3.6}$$.
4. Calculate: $$\frac{1024}{3.6} \approx 284.44$$.
5. Since Erin cannot store a fraction of a photo, she can store approximately **284 photos**.

### Problem 2: Suggested photo size for Sue
1. Total memory = 32 GB = 32 \times 1024 MB = 32768 MB.
2. Number of photos desired = 13000.
3. Photo size = Total memory / Number of photos = $$\frac{32768}{13000}$$ MB.
4. Calculate: $$\frac{32768}{13000} \approx 2.52$$ MB per photo.
5. Sue should use photos of size about **2.5 MB** to store 13000 photos on a 32 GB card.

### Matching cards A to E with i to v
Convert all sizes to the same unit (meters to micrometers or nanometers):
- 1 m = 1,000,000 μm = 1,000,000,000 nm
Card A: Dust mite = 0.0002 m = 0.0002 \times 1,000,000 μm = 200 μm
Card B: Bacterium = 0.000002 m = 2 μm
Card C: Virus = 0.0000001 m = 0.1 μm = 100 nm
Card D: Animal cell = 0.00002 m = 20 μm
Card E: Plant cell = 0.0001 m = 100 μm
Now match:
- i: 100 nm = 0.1 μm → matches Virus (C)
- ii: 20 μm → matches Animal cell (D)
- iii: 200 μm → matches Dust mite (A)
- iv: 100 μm → matches Plant cell (E)
- v: 2 μm → matches Bacterium (B)

**Final answers:**
- Erin can store approximately **284 photos**.
- Sue should use photos of size about **2.5 MB**.
- Matching cards:
- A → iii
- B → v
- C → i
- D → ii
- E → iv
