The owner of a restaurant wants to buy a rectangular glass top for the base of a table, as illustrated in the figure.
It is known that the base of the table, considering the outer edge, has the shape of a rectangle, whose sides measure $AC = 105 \mathrm{~cm}$ and $AB = 120 \mathrm{~cm}$.
At the store where the top will be purchased, there are five types of top options with different dimensions, all with the same thickness, namely:
Type 1: $110 \mathrm{~cm} \times 125 \mathrm{~cm}$
Type 2: $115 \mathrm{~cm} \times 125 \mathrm{~cm}$
Type 3: $115 \mathrm{~cm} \times 130 \mathrm{~cm}$
Type 4: $120 \mathrm{~cm} \times 130 \mathrm{~cm}$
Type 5: $120 \mathrm{~cm} \times 135 \mathrm{~cm}$
The owner evaluates, for user convenience, that one should choose the top with the smallest possible area that satisfies the condition: when placing the top on the base, on each side of the outer edge of the table base, there should be a remaining region, corresponding to a glass frame, limited by a minimum of 4 cm and maximum of 8 cm outside the table base, on each side.
According to the previous conditions, which type of glass top did the owner evaluate should be chosen?
(A) 1
(B) 2
(C) 3
(D) 4
(E) 5
The venue for Olympic swimming competitions uses the most advanced technology to provide swimmers with ideal conditions. This involves reducing the impact of undulation and currents caused by swimmers in their movement. To achieve this, the competition pool has a uniform depth of 3 m, which helps reduce the ``reflection'' of water (the movement against a surface and the return in the opposite direction, reaching the swimmers), in addition to the already traditional 50 m length and 25 m width. A club wishes to reform its pool of 50 m length, 20 m width and 2 m depth so that it has the same dimensions as Olympic pools.
After the reform, the capacity of this pool will exceed the capacity of the original pool by a value closest to
(A) $20\%$.
(B) $25\%$.
(C) $47\%$.
(D) $50\%$.
(E) $88\%$.
