Atile setter covers a 5 ft by 5 ft square shower wall. each tile covers a 4 5/8 in. by 4 5/8 in. square. how many rows of tile are needed to reach 5 ft. how many tiles are needed to cover the 5 ft by 5 ft?

The wall is square shaped.

The dimension of wall is 5 feet by 5 feet.

1 feet =12 inches

5 feet = 12*5 =60 inches

Area of square is given by:

Area = side * side

Area of square wall = 60*60 =3600 square feet.

Dimension of tile is 4 5/8 in. by 4 5/8 in.

converting 4 5/8 into improper fraction (8*4+5)/8 equals 37/8

Area of one tile = (37/8)*(37/8) = 1369/64

Number of tiles required can be found by dividing area of wall by area of one tile.

Number of tiles = 3600 divided by (1369/64)= 168.298 = 168

So number of tiles required will be 168.

7. diameter 4 miles, circumference 4π miles

8. radius 0.2 miles, circumference 0.4π miles

[this is a bad problem because the actual radius of a car on the track is less than 0.2 miles so the answer is less than 0.4π miles]

9. radius 6 feet, circumference 12π feet

10. diameter 14 cm, circumference 14π cm

11. diameter 4.8 feet, circumference 4.8π feet

answer: bearing in mind that a rectangle has a perimeter of length + length + width + width.

step-by-step explanation:

p = perimeter

l = length

x=width

p = 2l + 2x

p = 2(l+x)     < ==== perimeter of the base of the box.
