My sister is constantly buying magazines and tearing out any page that has pictures of her so she can hang it on her wall. If her wall is nine feet tall and eleven feet wide, how many eight-by-ten inch pages can she put up? (Note: The pages should not overlap and there might be some blank space? leftover.)

Answer:

178 pages

Explanation:

convert feet to inches

9 x 12 = 108

11 x 12 = 132

108 x 132 = 14256

8 x 10 = 80

14256/80 = 178 with a little left over
