Total Area = (# of tiles)*(Area per tile) 120r^3 = (x)*(sqrt(16r^9)) solve for x and rationalize the denominator if necessary

$\large 120r^3= x*\sqrt{16r^9}$ simplify $\large \sqrt{16r^9} \to \sqrt{16} * \sqrt{r^9}$ first... which is $\large \sqrt{16} = \sqrt{2*2*2*2}$ and $\large \sqrt{r^9} = r^{9/2}$

ok? But this isn't even your question to be posting that on.

After you simplify that, @kyleguitarplayer we can proceed
