Asked by Leemer

I'm doing a science project that requires me to put sand in a jar to represent the inner layers of the Earth

On the directions it says to Multiply the depth of the jar, 16.5 cm, by the percent you calculated for the inner core to determine the depth, in centimeters, for each layer.

I got 20.01% for the inner core but when you multiply 16.5 x 20.01 = 330.165 is the answer. The jar is only 16.5 cm deep the answer can't be that the inner core is 330.165 cm.

Am I doing something wrong? Or not seeing something?
