Question

jasmine wants to build a 2 5/6 meter long garden path paved with square stones that measure 1/4 meter on each side there will be no spaces between the stones how many stones will be needed to complete the path

Answer 1

Answer:

Why 2 5/6 times 2?

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

$2 \frac{5}{6}*2= \frac{17}{6}* \frac{2}{1} = \frac{17}{3}= 5\frac{2}{3}$

$5 \frac{2}{3}: \frac{1}{4}= \frac{17}{3}* \frac{4}{1}= \frac{68}{3} =22 \frac{2}{3}$

23 stones will be needed 
(you have to round up, since you can't have a fraction of a stone)
