ron is tiling a countertop. he needs to place 54 square tiles in each of 8 rows to cover the counter. he,wants to randomly place 8 groups of four blue tiles each and have the rest of the tiles to be white. how many white tiles will ron.need?choices are,either 464, 432,400 or 32. which answer would you pick?
54*8 = 432
there are 8*4 = 32 blue tiles
432-32 = 400 white tiles
Ummm your a popo head lmaoo
To solve this problem, let's break it down step by step:
1. Ron needs to place 54 square tiles in each of the 8 rows to cover the countertop. So the total number of tiles needed is 54 multiplied by 8: 54 * 8 = 432.
2. Ron wants to randomly place 8 groups of four blue tiles each. So the total number of blue tiles needed is 8 groups multiplied by 4 tiles per group: 8 * 4 = 32 blue tiles.
3. To find the number of white tiles needed, we subtract the number of blue tiles from the total number of tiles: 432 - 32 = 400 white tiles.
Therefore, Ron will need 400 white tiles. Therefore, the correct answer is 400, not 464, 432, or 32.
