Ripple, broad
Hi,
1) “When you make a calculation error at the beginning of a matrix exercise, it’ll ripplle through the rest of your steps and you won’t get a correct answer.”
Could ‘ripple through’ be used like that and are there any alternatives?
2) “The exam is quite broad in content.” - you have to go through a lot of materials because the content is extensive
“The exam is quite broad in scope.”
I’m not sure what the difference between these two is.
Thank you.
