Answer: The length of row of bricks is 68 inches.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of bricks = 8

Length of bricks =
8(1)/(2)=(17)/(2)

So, Length of the row of bricks is given by

Number of bricks × length of brick

$8* (17)/(2)\\\\=4* 17\\\\=68\ inches$

Hence, the length of row of bricks is 68 inches.
