Answer 1

Answer:Option

Explanation:

Answer 2

Option B.

Explanation:

Irrational number: It can not be expressed in the form of p/q, where p,q are integers and q≠0. For example :
`√(2),√(3),2.3456..., \pi \text{ etc}.`

Money cannot be expressed in square root of a prime number but sometimes we get not recurring non repeating decimal amount. So, budgeting with money has less chances to get an irrational number.

Area of a circle is

`A=\pi r^2`

where, r is radius.

It contains
`\pi` which is an irrational number. So, it is most likely o encounter an irrational number.

Area of square is square of its side. So, it has less chances to get an irrational number.

Buying food that has a cost per pound has less chances to get an irrational number because monitory terms are generally rational.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
