Kyle is planning to paint the top of a small rectangular table using tubes of craft paint. The dimensions of the table top are 3.25 feet by 4.5 feet. The paint comes in tubes that cover approximately 1.125 square feet. How many tubes will Kyle need to purchase to paint the top of the table?

3.25*4.5=14.625
14.625/1.125=13
