Answer:
169 sections
Step-by-step explanation:
A couple wants to install hardwood into their bedroom. The wood is bought in 0.5×5 square foot pieces
The area of the 0.5×5 square foot pieces
Area= 0.5*5.
Area= 2.5 square feet
They have 422 square feet of floor on which to install the hardwood.
Number of sections to be purchased
= 422/2.5
= 168.8 sections
Approximately= 169 sections
First, find the surface area of the bigger sides (there are 4 of them so what you get for one you will multiply by 4)
12 x 8 = 96
96 x 4 = 384
Then find the surface area of the smaller sides ( there are two small sides so multiply your answer by two)
8 x 8 = 64
64 x 2 =128
Then add both together
128 +384 = 512
Hope this helps :)
