Question

Jeffrey is planning to tile his bathroom. He is taking measurements before he goes to the hardware store to buy the tile. What is the best unit of measure for Jeffrey to use?

A.cubic feet
B.yards
C.square feet
D.square yards

Answer 1

Square feet! Cubic feet are used for 3D spaces, or volume, which won't be necessary for a 2D surface. Yards are commonly used for distance and perimeter. Square yards would be much too long for something such as tiling on a bathroom floor. Hope this helps. 

Answer 2

(C) Square feet

Explanation:

In order to take the measurements, he should use the square feet unit of measure.

As, the cubic feet also known as unit of volume can be defined as the volume of the cube with sides of one foot in length. Since, the bathroom is two dimensional therefore, cubic feet can't be used.

Yards are basically a unit of length use to measure length and perimeter and square yards are used in measuring the long space and the bathroom is bit too small for it.

Therefore, square feet should be used to measure.
