Answer 1

135,00 divided by 6,000 =x=2.25 so 23 exstinguishers are needed in a building with 135,000 feet

Answer 2

In this question, it is given that

It is recommended that one fire fire extinguisher be available for every 6000 square feet in a building .

And X is the number of fire extinguishers needed for building that has 135 ,000 square feet area .

We have to find the value of X.

And for that we have to divide 135000 by 6000,that gives

`(135000)/(6000)=22.5`

So approx 23 fire extinguishers are needed for an area of 135000 square feet .
