Mathematics

The smallest number of tiles Quintin will need in order to tile  his floor is 20

The given parameters;

  • number of different shapes of tiles available = 3
  • number of each shape = 5
  • area of each square shape tiles, A = 2000 cm²
  • length of the floor, L = 10 m = 1000 cm
  • width of the floor, W = 6 m = 600 cm

To find:

  • the smallest number of tiles Quintin will need in order to tile his floor

Among the three different shapes available, total area of one is calculated as;

A_{one \ square \ type} = 5 \times 2000 \ cm^2 = 10,000 \ cm^2

Area of the floor is calculated as;

A_{floor} = 1000 \ cm \times 600 \ cm = 600,000 \ cm^2

The maximum number tiles needed (this will be possible if only one shape type is used)

maximum \ number= \frac{Area \ of \ floor}{total \ area \ of \ one \ shape \ type} \\\\maximum \ number= \frac{600,000 \ cm^2}{10,000 \ cm^2} \\\\maximum \ number=  60

When all the three different shape types are used we can get the smallest number of tiles needed.

The minimum or smallest number of tiles needed (this will be possible if all the 3 different shapes are used)

3 \times \ smallest \ number  = 60\\\\smallest \ number = \frac{60}{3} \\\\smallest \ number = 20

Thus, the smallest number of tiles Quintin will need in order to tile  his floor is 20

(5x + 10) / (x + 2) * (2x) / (4x - 10)

2x(5x + 10) / (x + 2)(4x - 10) =
(10x^2 + 20x) / (4x^2 - 2x - 20) =
(5x^2 + 10x) / (2x^2 - x - 10) =
5x(x + 2) / (2x - 5)(x + 2) =

Workers at Samantha strStrawberry patch picked 3 1/2 dozen strawberries on Monday on Tuesday they pick 4 1/4 times as many how m
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The number of dozens of strawberries ordered on Tuesday   is 14\frac{7}{8} dozen

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of strawberries picked on Monday = 3 1/2 dozen  

Now, 3\frac{1}{2}  = 3 + \frac{1}{2}  = 3 + 0.5  = 3.5

So, the dozen of strawberries picked by workers on Monday  = 3.5 dozen

Now, the amount of strawberries picked on Tuesday

= 4 1/4 times ( Strawberries picked on Monday)

Also,  4\frac{1}{4}  = 4 + \frac{1}{4}  = 4 + 0.25  = 4.25

So, the strawberries picked on Tuesday  = 4.25 x ( 3.5 dozen)

                                                                      =  14.875 dozen

14.875 = 14 + 0.875   =  14 + \frac{875}{1000}  = 14 + \frac{7}{8}  = 14\frac{7}{8}

Hence, the number of dozens of strawberries ordered on Tuesday = 14\frac{7}{8}
