To determine the maximum number of photos that can fit on each page, we need to calculate the number of columns and rows.
First, let's calculate the number of columns:
Page width = 8 1/2 inches = 8.5 inches
Photograph width = 1 1/4 inches = 1.25 inches
Number of columns = Page width / Photograph width
Number of columns = 8.5 inches / 1.25 inches
Number of columns = 6.8 columns
Since we cannot have a fraction of a column, we will round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, we can have a maximum of 6 columns on each page.
Next, let's calculate the number of rows:
Page length = 11 inches
Photograph length = 1 3/4 inches = 1.75 inches
Number of rows = Page length / Photograph length
Number of rows = 11 inches / 1.75 inches
Number of rows = 6.286 rows
Similarly, we need to round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, we can have a maximum of 6 rows on each page.
Now, let's calculate the maximum number of photos on each page:
Maximum number of photos = Number of columns x Number of rows
Maximum number of photos = 6 columns x 6 rows
Maximum number of photos = 36 photos
Therefore, each page can fit a maximum of 36 small photos.
You are working on a yearbook that will contain small photos of individual people. The pages will be 8 1/2 inches wide and 11 inches long. Each photograph will be 1 1/4 inches wide and 1 3/4 inches long. The photos will be set in rows and columns with no space between the rows or between the columns
