Question
Use the image to answer the question.
A home remodeler has chosen a tile pattern for a floor. How much tile is needed to create pattern?
Blank square centimeters
To determine how much tile is needed to create the pattern on the floor, we need to calculate the area of the pattern shown in the image.
First, we need to count the number of squares in the pattern.
From the image, there are 12 full blue squares and 1 half blue square, which can be counted as another half blue square. This gives us a total of 12.5 blue squares in the pattern.
Next, we calculate the total area of the pattern.
Each blue square has an area of 1 square centimeter.
Therefore, the total area of the pattern is 12.5 square centimeters.
So, the home remodeler will need 12.5 square centimeters of tile to create the pattern on the floor.
