He will use more tiles because 1/3 is smaller than 1/2 and the smaller the tiles the more you need to fill the place up.
Answer:
Diego is 14 years old.
Sister is 19
Step-by-step explanation:
x = Diego's age
<u>x</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>4</u>
2x-9 = 2
First to get rid of the fraction we multiply each side by 2
2(2x-9) = 2((x+24)/2)
4x-18 = x+24
The we isolate x
4x-18 = x+24
<u>-x+18 -x+18</u>
<u>3x</u> = <u>42</u> Now we divide each side 3
3 3
x = 14
So Diego is 14
Now we can solve for his sister. We can use one of the two equations from earlier to do this.
Plug 14 in for x and then solve for his sister
2(14)-9
28-9
19
His sister is 19
I believe you will need to find what -0.125 of an inch is, subtract that from 16, then divide that into 11.
