Question

How many 42’’ wide wall panels must be bolted together to create a 28’ wall?

Answer 1

From the question, we were asked that how many 42 inches wide panels must be bolted together to create a 28 feet wall.

First let's covert the two measurement to same unit.

So, lets convert 42 inches into feet.

Recall, 1 foot will give 12 inches

42 inches will be:

42/12 = 3.5 feet

Therefore, the wide wall that must be bolted together to create a 28 feet wall is:

= 28/3.5

= 8 feet.
