Question

David put glass stones in a picture frame in the shape of a rectangle. He used 36 glass stones that measure 1 foot on each side. There are 6stones on one side of the picture frame. How many stones are on the other side

Answer 1

side is 6 stones


area is legnth times width
legnth of one side=6
area=36
36=6 times width
divide both sides by 6
6=width

since it is a rectangle, opposite sides measure the same, and in this case, all sides are equal measure so the answer is 6 stones
