Answer:

500 bricks.

Explanation:

There are 250 bricks used to build a wall that is 20 feet high how many bricks will be used to build a wall is 40 feet high?

To solve e the above question, we have:

20 feet high = 250 bricks

40 feet high = x bricks

Cross Multiply

20 feet × x bricks = 40 feet × 250 bricks

x bricks = 40 feet × 250 bricks/20 feet

x bricks = 500 bricks

Therefore, 500 bricks will be used to build a wall is 40 feet high.
