ten tiles in 30 square feet.
so the area of each of the 10 tiles must be 3 ft^2
3*w=3
w=1ft
so the area of each of the 10 tiles must be 3 ft^2
3*w=3
w=1ft
3+w=10
Mary put new tiles on her kitchen floor. The floor measures 6 feet long by 5 feet wide. She uses 10 tiles to cover the entire floor. Each tile was 3 feet long. Write an equation using the variable X to model this situation. What does X represent in the equation?
6 x 5 = w
10W*3=30
6 x 5 + W or 10 x 3 + W
6 x 5 = W or 10 x 3 = W
