It takes 96 tiles to fill a 2-foot by 3-foot rectangle. How many tiles would it take to fill a 4-foot by 6-foot rectangle?
a tree broken down by the storm from right triangle with the ground. if the angle angle which the broken part make the ground is 60 degree and the distance from the tip to the foot of the tree is 10 meter. how tall was the tree
To find out how many tiles would it take to fill a 4-foot by 6-foot rectangle, we can use the concept of area. The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying its length by its width.
In the given problem, we know that it takes 96 tiles to fill a 2-foot by 3-foot rectangle. Therefore, the area of the 2-foot by 3-foot rectangle is 96 tiles.
To find the area of the 4-foot by 6-foot rectangle, we can use the relationship between the sizes of the two rectangles. We know that if we double the length and width of a rectangle, the area becomes four times larger.
So, we can multiply the area of the 2-foot by 3-foot rectangle (96 tiles) by 4 to find the area of the 4-foot by 6-foot rectangle.
96 tiles × 4 = 384 tiles
Therefore, it would take 384 tiles to fill a 4-foot by 6-foot rectangle.
do it by proportion:
96/6ft^2=N/24ft^2 solve for N
