Length of the walkway that needs to be tiled = 60 feet
Width of the walkway that needs to be tiled = 2 feet.
Then
Area of the walkway that needs to be tiled = Length * Breadth
= 60 * 2 square feet
= 120 square feet
Now
Length of the tiles sold by the local store = 2 feet
Width of the tiles sold by the local store = 2 feet
Area covered by the tiles sold by the local store = 2 * 2 feet
= 4 square feet
Number of tiles in a box = 6
Then
Total area covered by a box of tile = (6 * 2) square feet
= 12 square feet
Then
The number of boxes required by Sean = (120/12)
= 10
So 10 boxes of tiles are needed by Sean and his father.
Answer:
111 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is a quadrilateral (has four sides and four angle) with two pairs of parallel sides. Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal to each other. Also all the angles of a rectangle are 90° each.
The area of a rectangle = length * width
For rectangle 1, length = 12 m, width = 3 m
Therefore area of rectangle 1 = length * width = 12 m * 3 m = 36 m²
For rectangle 2, length =(12 m - 3 m - 3 m) = 6 m, width =(15 m - 10 m) =5 m
Therefore area of rectangle 2 = length * width = 6 m * 5 m = 30 m²
For rectangle 3, length = 15 m, width = 3 m
Therefore area of rectangle 3 = length * width = 15 m * 3 m = 45 m²
Area of composite shape = Area of rectangle 1 + Area of rectangle 2 + Area of rectangle 3
Area of composite shape = 36 m² + 30 m² + 45 m² = 111 m²
The quick way to dispute something like this is to simply do the calculation and then create a ratio.
Cube One (Large Cube)
The formula for a cube is V = e^3
e = the measurement of an edge. In this case.
e = 10 cm
V = e^3
V = 10^3 = 10*10*10
V = 1000 cm^3
Cube 2 (Small Cube)
V = e^3
e = 5 cm
V = 5*5*5
V = 125 cm^3
Ratio
Large Cube / Small Cube = 1000 / 125 = 8/1.
The difference in size is 8 to 1 not 2 to 1.
Explanation
He's right if he sticks to one side. The ratio of one side of the large cube to the small one is 2 to 1. But once you put that into the formula for volume, three sides are multiplied together and that 2 shows up everytime you multiply the sides together.
