Question

10

Answer 1

We have that the total length of paper needed to cover all the tables is

$X=288.5ft$

From the question we are told that:

Number of tables $n=36$

Length of table$l=8$

Extension $e=3 inch =>0.25feet$

Generally, the equation for the Total length  tables is mathematically given by

$l_t=n*l\\\\l_t=36*8$

$l_t=288ft$

Therefore with an extension of 0.25ft at both end we have the Total length of  tablecloths to be

$X=l_t+2(e)\\\\X=288ft+2(0.25)$

$X=288.5ft$

In conclusion

The total length of paper needed to cover all the tables is

$X=288.5ft$
