Question

a kitchen is shaped like a rectangle with dimensions of 11 1/2 ft. by 9 1/2 ft. the floor of the room is made of square tiles with a side length of 1.2 ft. What is the number of tiles that will cover the kitchen floor?

Answer 1

If you want to know the number of whole tiles, then

11.5/1.2 = 9.6
9.5/1.2 = 7.9

So, assuming the cut pieces are not used, you will need

10x8 = 80 tiles

Answer 2

437 tiles

Answer 3

how did you get 437

Answer 4

Answer 5

Sorry about that.

Answer 6

yeeeeet

Answer 7

it's 437 because...
1. change(simplify) 11 1/2 and 9 1/2
23/2(11 1/2) and 19/2(9 1/2) because 11x2+1=23 and 9x2+1= 19
2. multiply straight across.
23/2 x 19/2 = 437(23 x 19)/4(2x2)
3. Divide it by the area of a square tile
area of square tile= 1/4 because... area= length x height and square tile mean a tile that has an equal size of length and height.
so 1/2x 1/2= 1/4
now divide 437/4 by 1/4, which is 437.
because... when you divide, you flip the fraction in the back and change the divide symbol to multiply, so it will look like 437/4 x 4/1(simplify to 4)=1748/4 = 437


so the answer is 437, but try to not cheat while the test and use my answer on test CORRECTIONS
