Imagine you are hanging two identical picture frames. Each frame is 28 inches wide and the wall you are hanging them on is 10 feet wide. There needs to be 8 inches of space in between the two frames. How far do the frames need to be from the left and right side of the walls in order to be centered?

Answer 1

28 Inches

Explanation:

10 ft x 12 = 120 inches

120/2 is 60 inches to the center of the wall

28+28+8 = 64 in measure of the frames and the space between them

64 / 2 = 32 in measure from center of both paintings and the 8 in requirement

60 in - 32 in = 28 in is the measurement from the wall to the outer diameter of the paintings
