Question

anonymous · Answer

Mrs. Moser wanted to tile a different area of her kitchen that is 10 ft by 4 ft. The tiles come in
sheets of 12 tiles, arranged in a rectangle that is 2 tiles wide by 6 tiles long. Because there is
space on the sheet between the tiles for the grout, each tile with the spacing is equivalent to 2 in.
by 2 in. (Grout is a paste-like substance that fills the gaps between tiles.) How many sheets would be needed to cover the 10 ft by 4 ft area? Show your work.
