-- Cut the sheet in half. 

-- Put one half-sheet on top of the other half-sheet.
Cut the stack of 2 halves in half.

-- Put one stack of two quarter-sheets on top of the other stack of quarter-sheets.
Cut the stack of 4 quarters in half.

Now you have eight one-eighth sheets.

Three cuts.
Taking Sam (3 x 5) = 15 minutes, plus a few seconds for set-up between cuts.

A small painting has an area of 400 cm^2. The length is 4 more than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the pool. Solve by c
anygoal [31]
A = l*w
l = 2w + 4
400 = (2w + 4)*w
0 = 2w^2 + 4w - 400

Then use the quadratic equation where a=2, b=4, and c=-400.

w = <span>13.2
l = 30.4
