1. The problem is to determine which filter design meets both requirements:
- Remove at least 95% of chlorine from tap water.
- Be less than 12 centimeters wide.
2. We analyze each design based on the two criteria:
- Design A: 95% removal, 13.1 cm width
- Design B: 96% removal, 12.4 cm width
- Design C: 93% removal, 10.2 cm width
3. Check chlorine removal:
- Design A meets the 95% removal requirement.
- Design B meets the 95% removal requirement.
- Design C does not meet the 95% removal requirement (only 93%).
4. Check width:
- Design A is 13.1 cm, which is not less than 12 cm.
- Design B is 12.4 cm, which is not less than 12 cm.
- Design C is 10.2 cm, which is less than 12 cm.
5. Combine both requirements:
- Design A fails width requirement.
- Design B fails width requirement.
- Design C fails chlorine removal requirement.
6. Conclusion: None of the designs meet both requirements simultaneously.
Final answer: No design satisfies both requirements of at least 95% chlorine removal and width less than 12 cm.
