8 0

Answer: There are 972 tiles to cover the kitchen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Dimensions of kitchen be

$24\ ft\ by\ 18\ ft$

Dimension of each tile = 8 inches

We have to find the number of tiles .

So, Number of tiles is given by

$\frac{\text{Area of kitchen}}{\text{ Area of tile }}\\\\=\frac{24\times 12\times 18\times 12}{8\times 8}\\\\=\frac{62208}{64}\\\\=972$

Hence, there are 972 tiles to cover the kitchen.

a company can make 5000 crayons in 6 minutes how many crayons can be made in 3 hours. please show the steps!

Sloan [31]

6 mins goes into 60 mins ten times.
so, first do
$5000 \times 10 = 50000$
now 50000 crauons are being made in 1 hour but your are trying to find how many crayons are being made in 3 hours
so, you multiply
$50000 \times 3 = 150000$
150000 is how many crayons are made in 3 hours.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use Pythagoras Theorem,

$8^{2} + y^{2} = (8\sqrt{6} )^{2} \\ y^{2} = (8\sqrt{6} )^{2} - 8^{2} \\y^{2} = 384 - 64\\y^{2} = 320\\y = \sqrt{320}$
