Complete question :
Jeremiah plans on building a 5 meter long garden walkway that is paved with square stones that measure " 5/6 meter on each side. There will be no spaces between the stones. How many stones will be needed to complete the garden walkway?
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Length of square block to be used = 5/6 meters
Length of garden. Walkway = 5 m
Since length of walkway is the same on both sides, then the Total length = 5m + 5m = 10 meters
Number of square stones required :
Total length of walkway / side length of stones to be used
= 10 meters ÷ (5/6) meters
= 10 * 6/5
= 60 / 5
= 12 stones
Maybe try multiplying them
5/2 = 2.5
you can check by multiplying 2.5 and 2.
Area is the product of length and width. If you assume the dimensions are integers, you are looking for factors of 117 that differ by 4.
117 = 1×117 = 3×39 = 9×13
These last two factors differ by 4, so we know the dimensions of the barn are ...
... 9 ft wide by 13 ft long
