help 911 Peter plans to cover two walls of his rectangular room with wall paper, as shown below. A roll of wallpaper is 10 meters long and 0.5 meters wide. Assuming that there is no wastage, how many rolls of wallpaper would Peter require to cover the two walls? 3 13 16 5
jc edit yur question and remove the 911
lol why
bc it isnt necessary your are not in any danger
lol okkkkkkkkkkkk
just find the area of each wall and then add it all the number
i don't know how to do that
area of square is L X W
16 roll is needed
look at the bottom the inside of the blue box and it will say edit question
see,40+40=80 sq.m area is to be covered...and one wallpaper is of area 5=10*0.5...so 80/5=16 wallpapers are needed :)
4 x 8= 40 then add 40 more for the other wall
ok ok let me see
how do you get 40
4*8 is 32
sorry mistake 32 +32
lol ok
64 /5 = 12.8
rounded to the nearest tenth is 13
@Cemantha is right
thanks girls
ur welcome
i did this already io was jus here to see if she would understand what she was saying =) but she did a good job exceot the 4*8 but that was a common mistake but good job
but height is 5 and 5*8 is indeed 40!!! :P
lol cemantha
wait i didnt see that . hold on one sec bc my old problem had 4 instead of 5
the answer is 16 and i'll explain . huneya mistakingly put 4 instead of 5 for 4*8 its really 5*8 which is 40 and so 40 + 40 = 80 ; 80/5= 16 so the correct answer is 16 jc im sorry i didnt read yur question correctly
oh its ok thanks for the help
your welcome
