Width: 3.5 ft.
Height: 0.25 ft.

How many square feet of contact paper does he need to cover the entire tabletop?

Answer 1

Explanation:

3.5 as a fraction is 7/2 or 35/10 which equals 3 1/2 3.5 again is 3 1/2 0.25 is 1/4 because 0.25 is in the hundredths place which is 25/100 25 times 4 is 100 so that's why it equals 1/4 so we have to add 3 1/2 + 3 1/2 + 1/4 3+3 is 6 1/2 plus 1/2 is 1 6+1 is 7+ 1/4 is 7 1/4 If you do 25 times 4 its 100 25, 50, 75, 100 1/4 is equal to 25/100 because that's 1 time
