Question

Abigail is putting tiles in a table top. She needs 48 tiles for each of the 8 rows. Each of the rows will have 6 white tiles. The rest of the tiles will be purple. How many purple tiles will she need?

Answer 1

Answer:

336 purple tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of tiles for each row be =  48 tiles

The number of rows                                =     8 rows

number of white tiles per row                 = 6 tiles

total number of white tiles                       = $8 * 6$

                                                                   = 48 tiles

the total number of tiles  = $48* 8 = 384$

number of purple tiles = $384 - 48\\= 336 tiles$

Answer 2

Abigale will need 336 purple tiles
