One package of tile will cover 3 square feet.How many packages will shee need 8,13,15,39

Answer 1

Hey there! :)

Answer:

13 packages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by finding the total area of this composite figure. Separate the figure into separate rectangles. Use the formula A = l × w to calculate the area of each:

Smaller rectangle:

Subtract 7 from 9 to find the width:

9 -7 = 2. Therefore:

2 × 2 = 4 ft².

Larger rectangle:

7 × 5 = 35 ft².

Add up the two areas to find the area of the entire figure:

4 + 35 = 39 ft².

If each package of tile covers 3 ft², simply divide to find the package of tiles needed:

39 / 3 = 13 packages.
