To calculate the number of bricks needed to build one layer of the wall, we need to determine the length of the wall in terms of bricks.

First, convert the measurement of the wall from meters and centimeters to centimeters.

5 meters and 31 centimeters = (5 x 100) + 31 = 500 + 31 = 531 centimeters

Next, divide the total length of the wall by the length of each brick to find the number of bricks needed.

531 centimeters ÷ 16 centimeters = 33.1875

Since we cannot have a fraction of a brick, we need to round up to the nearest whole number because you cannot have a fraction of a brick. Therefore, you will need 34 bricks to build one layer of the wall.
