Question

You plan to construct a brick wall measuring 14.5 ft. in length, 5.5 ft. high, and 0.5 ft. in width. If a brick measures 6 in. x 4 in. x 2 in., how many bricks will you need? (Remember to round up.)
The wall is 174 x 66 x 6 inches. That is 29 x 16.5 x 3 bricks.

If we have to round up (no partial bricks reused), then that is 29 x 17 x 3 = 1479 bricks.
