Answer:
He will need 9 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
let us highlight the given parameters
Given data
the size of the kitchen floor is 110 ft^2
the size of the bathroom is 28 ft^2
he used 32.5 tiles for the kitchen
and used x tiles for the bathroom
Step two:
if he used 32 tiles for 110 ft^2 kitchen
he will use x tiles for 28 ft^2 bathroom
cross multiplying we have
x= (32*28)/110
x= 896/110
x= 8.145
<em>Approximately he will need 9 tiles</em>
The answer, at least what I got, is 17.375 . They'd have to open an eighteenth package because the extra .375 is not in the original package, so I would go with B .
4 + 3 + 2 = 9
18/9 = 2
3 x 2 = 6
Answer = 6
