Question

Byron placed bricks in a row to make a border that was 16.9 feet long. Each brick is 1.3 feet long. How many bricks are in the border? A. 13 B. 12 C. 1.3 D. 1.2

Answer 1

If each brick is exactly 1.3 feet, diving 16.9 by 1.3 will produce the exact amount of bricks used. 

16.9 ÷1.3 = 13

There are 13 bricks in the border (the answer is A.)

Answer 2

The answer is A. 13, because 16.9/1.3= 13
