Mason, a hardwood flooring installer, needs to calculate the amount of hardwood flooring needed to cover a floor that's 33⁄4 yar
ds wide and 51⁄2 yards long. How many square yards of hardwood flooring are needed? (Area = Length × Width)
1 answer:
Answer:
20 5/8 yd^2
Step-by-step explanation:
width = 3 3/4 yd
length = 5 1/2 yd
First change both measurements to fractions.
3 3/4 = 3 + 3/4 = 12/4 + 3/4 = 15/4
5 1/2 = 5 + 1/2 = 10/2 + 1/2 = 11/2
area = length * width
area = 15/4 yd * 11/2 yd
area = (15 * 11)/(4 * 2) yd^2
area = 165/8 yd^2
165/8 = 20 remainder 5
area = 20 5/8 yd^2
