Source: Information Please Advanced Manufacturing: Raw Materials In advanced manufacturing, raw materials can be very expensive. Manufacturers want to get the most use from raw materials with a minimum of scrap (leftover material). From a sheet of 8.5 x 11 inch paper: 1. What is the maximum number of 2 ¼ inch squares that can be cut with the least scrap? 2. What is the maximum number of right triangles with legs of 30 mm, 40 mm, and 50 mm that can be cut with the scrap? 3. What is the maximum number of rectangles with lengths of 3 ½ inches and widths of 2 ½ inches that can be cut with the least scrap? 4. What is the maximum number of circles with diameters of 5 cm that can be cut with the least (Hint: Find an object (cup) with a diameter of 5 cm) 5. How many sheets of paper would it take to make an order of: 20 2 ¼ inch squares 15 right triangles with legs of 30 mm, 40 mm, and 50 mm 20 rectangles with lengths of 3 ½ inches and widths of 2 ½ inches 20 circles with diameters of 5 cm Advanced Manufacturing: Understanding Workers in advanced manufacturing need to be able to take a written plan (blueprint) for something and then create it on a machine. To practice reading a blueprint, we will use this plan for an Ipad stand, and make a mock up of it using paper.
