Loren is putting brick along both edges of the 21-meter walkway to his house. Each brick is 0.26 meters long. Loren is placing the bricks end to end. How many bricks does he need?

Converting this to centimeters would make this a lot easier.

Walkway = 21m = 2100cm
Each brick = 0.26m = 26cm

Total number of bricks needed (b) = 2100 รท 26
b โ‰ˆ 81.
