First find the total area of the building.

44ft x 74ft = 3256ft^2

Next, since you have 24 tiles per box, each covering 1ft^2 of space, find the number of boxes you need to supply the minimum number of tiles needed to fill the area.

3256ft^2 ÷ 24 = 135.6 boxes

Since you are finding the minimum number of boxes to completely fill the given area, round up.

Answer = 136 boxes

What is the value of x in the equation 1/2x - 3/4 = 3/8 - 5/8

Kitty [74]

The answer

x = 1

step by step

$\frac{1}{2} x - \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{8} - \frac{5}{8} \\ \frac{1}{2} x = \frac{3}{8} - \frac{5}{8} + \frac{3}{4} \\ \frac{1}{2} x = \frac{3}{8} - \frac{5}{8} + \frac{6}{8} \\ \frac{1}{2}x = \frac{4}{8} \\ \frac{1}{2} x = \frac{1}{2} \\ x = 1$
