I think that 3 rolls is wrong and that 6 rolls is right. If you create a 15 by 15 square and draw two lines through the center that connect to the opposite corner, you'll be able to use the Pythagorean Theorem.
Perimeter: 15+15+15+15=60ft.
Length of Line from Corner to Corner:
(15)(15)+(15)(15)=C^2
225+225=C^2
450=C^2
21.2=C
21.2(2)= 42.4ft.
42.4ft.+60ft.= 102.4ft.
102.4ft. divided by 20ft. = 5.12 = <u>6 rolls</u>
The formula is called the “midpoint formula”. It looks like this
m=(x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2 where m means midpoint. In your case it looks like this.
I think the answer would be 15, 8•15=120, leaving 3 points left which would be an multiple choice question, hope this helps:))
3.33333333 as a whole number is 3
Divide the numerator with the denominator for each, and that's all really... Good luck!!
